I just started today, these are the first pics, picture quality sucks. I also broke down a JBJ 28 this morning before I got this far. Gonna do the leak test tomorrow morning and take it from there.

Thanks, Yea I got lucky with the black silicone, when I ordered the tank from Marineland/Perfecto they said they only do the 65 in clear.

It looks nice, I especially like that sump.
What lighting is on the tank and did you cure the extra rock before adding it (I assume you did )?

 

[jaa1456]

The lighting is a Current Usa T5 fixture, 6 bulb. The last pics were just with the 2 bulbs on. And all Live rock was cured before adding in. So far no ammonia,nitrite or nitrates.

Hers a pic from September, I will take some new pics tonight so you can see the coral growth, All SPS was added in September, Notice the Birdsnest at the top and the Green one below it. The new pic will show how much they have grown since then. Also all the tangs have been removed as well as the Flame. The flame was nipping as well as the hippo, The other 2 got a little to large. I have no clue why the tank looks cloudy on here.

Here are a few I just took, I also just cleaned the glass so the water is a little dirty, Notice the Growth of the SPS from Spetember to now. The Red Planet was half the size when I got it in October.

Well, you're not to far from me. Maybe, one of these days me and some of the guys here in Jersey can check it out. I'm sure it looks alot better than what that camera is showing us.
