This tank started it's life as a 75 gallon non-drilled tank. About mid-June, one of the local reef club members was giving away a 90 gallon reef-ready tank that I was lucky enough to get. I moved all of my livestock and the rock towards the end of July, but tossed my old sand and replaced it with some of Caribsea's Hawaiian black I had left from another build I wasn't able to sell. My tank is nothing fancy.

Fish include:
Carpenter's flasher wrasse
McCosker's flasher wrasse
Filamented flasher wrasse
Linespot flasher wrasse
Geometric pygmy hawkfish
Royal gramma
Tomini tang
Foxface (algae eating machine, but very skittish)

Inverts include
Fire shrimp
Emerald crabs (2)
Astrea snails
Blue legged hermit crabs
Cerith snails
Asterina stars
Deresa clam

Corals include:
Duncans
War coral
Alien eye chalice
Lava chalice
Xenia
Seafoam palys
Green button polyps
Lunar eclipse palys
Several varieties of zoas
Three varieties of acan lords
Dargon soul (?) favia
Several montis
A couple of leptos
Some other stuff I can't remember :rolleyes:

Equipment:
Quiet One 4000 return
Two Jeboa WP-40
Eheim 300W heater
Inkbird ITC-308 temperature controller
IT-2080 LED fixure
Eshopps Deluxe 200 sump
Aqua-C EV-120 skimmer powered by Mag 7
JBJ ATO Controller with MJ600 (using kalkwasser)

I normally run a BRS dual reactor powered by a MJ1200, but I removed that an put on my 40 to help with a hair algae problem.

Shortly after the move, I lost my blue linckia star, and not too long ago I lost a skunk cleaner shrimp. I think the shrimp was just old. (I'd had him about 3 years.) His antennae were pretty kinked and he had gotten pretty large.
