Just a quick update. The Pink skunks came in and are now in the big reef. And it took them literally 5 seconds to find their home.

Your nitrates have steadily been at 160 for a year?
 
Lots of growth. This is 10 days after the last cleanout.

Can you take some close up pics of your tank? I'm curious to see everything.

I will see what I can do. More challenging with the curved glass. Maybe bows a good time to test my underwater skills.
 
Let’s see how these look @Katrina71. Really wish I had @Robin Haselden ‘s skills at the photography part of it.
These are some Raw photos

Thanks. Think their is still more work to be done[emoji6]
 
Does anybody ever look at their tank and think it's done? If you do, do you think bigger tank? I've been wondering that myself.

I don’t think their is ever a tank that’s ever “done”. I may have a 180 in the works[emoji849]. Shh
 
A 180? Wow. You could takes pics from inside the tank!

My dad currently has a 220 FW tank that I would live to have. But I don’t think it’s moving anytime soon. MF is heavy and we built the house around it[emoji23]
 
Take some pics. I have some spaces that I could do a large tank, but I'd need help to maintain it. My son has to get a little older.

The tank is nothing fancy[emoji23] Going through a nasty bacteria bloom at the moment so a bit cloudy. It has 8 pleco’s inside at the moment ranging from 7” long to 16” long. These guys are monsters! Pics when the lights come on.
