Just thought I'd share

I've never posted any full pictures of my tanks before. Not sure why. Anyway, here they are. Everything is real low tech. I know they're not the most amazing tanks in the world, but they're my babies. I can sit in my swivel recliner in the man cave/family room and gaze adoringly at each one. Comments are absolutely welcome, just be gentle.

Very nice tanks!

Thanks. There's so much I'd like to do. Someday I'll retire, and the tanks will get a lot more attention.

They are each lovely in a different way. What size is the FW angel tank?

125 Gallon. My favorite fish, a chocolate cichlid is hiding under the anubius on the left.

Low tech? Be gentle? Dude. ;Stop

Awesome stuff.

Auquanut · Mar 10, 2019

If you saw the equipment I have under the 125 reef, you'd think "garage sale!"

Mrx7899 · Mar 10, 2019

Very nice you don't need fancy equipment to have nice tanks.

Mastiffsrule · Mar 10, 2019

It’s not what you have, it’s what you do with it. Your tanks are awesome. I would keep doing what you’re doing.

The larger reef is a 125? I have a 180g and use three black box lights mounted 90 degrees differently than yours. What settings do you use for them?

Impressive tanks man! I love the aquascaping in your fresh water tanks. I myself have 2 small fresh water tanks a 5gal pea puffer tank and the other a 10gal betta, guppies,neon tetras tanks. And of course a 46bow coral that I'm working on and my new EVO 13.5.

My lights are second hand. I have the two outside ones set with the full spectrum's turned down as far as they will go without turning off, and the blues at about 80% for my lower light lower flow corals. The two center ones are set to about 85% full spectrum and 100% blue for the higher light/flow corals. It took some doing to set my power heads just the way I wanted them. The acro's really seem to dig it.

The auguascaping in that 46 is AWESOME! I've always wanted a pea puffer tank. Great tanks.
