Lets see some BIG tank photos

Emperor angel! My favorite fish. Wish I could have one in my reef! Some day I'll have a fish only too and I'll definitely have an emperor

You could have one in your reef. It would be very happy as it ate everything.

Lol they sure would love to eat all your tasty corals . One thing to know about emperors is they are extremely territorial just like most pomacanthus . Mine rules the tank for the most part .

I love all of these tanks! I'm getting a 10 gal. Saltwater soon, probably FOWLER, I assume. And then for Christmas, a large tank; probably 49 gal. but hopefully 55-60, that'd be amazing.

I hope you get started. Just be patient with it.

Got it, very pretty.

I have a question for you. As your tanks seem pretty great, I assumed you'd be a great person to ask. I'm buying pre-mixed saltwater, with all of the correct levels and such, but do I still need to cycle?

My 125 gallon reef. It is over 15 yrs old.

Yes. A tank cycles continuously thru its life span. A saltwater tank goes thru a process that at first spikes various nitrogen levels that will kill live stock. That can be reduced by some store bought concoctions, but nothing works better IMO than letting nature take her course. You will go thru all the various changes a tank goes thru as it establishes bacterial loads and the cycling spikes grow smaller in magnitude. Fish only tanks are easier as fish can accept water that would kill corals. But even with fish, the better the water quality, the less algae and the healthier the fish.

That's gorgeous.

Yep...and look at his old school VHO's!

If it works you don't mess with it.

Just never had the gumption to change them. I`m a LPS and soft corals person anyway.

I'm not busting your stones....I'm just pointing out that you are one of the last VHO users I know.

 

[Gregcoyote]

I bet his tank has been around a while. Nice work.

 

[melosu58]

I knew you were not talking bad. I appreciate the compliment.

So would it be crazy to think a 4x 96w pc could house some corals?
