our 140 cube tank

[klasikb]

We decided to downgrade our tank a few months ago, going from a 210 to a 140 gallon semi-cube tank (36x36x25). The new tank has been up almost 2 months now and everything has been going very well and the electric bill is much lower. Enjoy the pictures! :)

full tank shot, the pictures are much more blue than the tank really is. There is one 250watt 20k Radium MH in a luminarc reflector over the tank.

wow, nice tank !!

[jojo22]

You guys really have to quit posting pics like this. It is only makeing me want to rush my new tank. DARN THAT STUPID CYCLE STUFF!!!!! LOL Nice tank.

[AuntKaren]

That is one gorgeous tank! Can you tell me about the Watanabe Angel? Is it a dwarf angel? Obviously it is reef safe LOL.

Also, I learned that I can have more than one blenny in my tank. I was just getting ready to ask if more than one would work out. Where did you find that gorgeous starry blenny?

We have just cycled our new 180 gallon and are in the process of researching what we want to put into the tank.

Thanks for sharing your gorgeous tank!

Thank tank is simply beautiful. I would give anything for water that crystal clear. My water always has little particles floating around in it...makes it look cloudy. I am researching some type of mechanical filter, a canister, or water polisher...something like that.

Auntkaren- the watanabe angel is actually considered a large angel but I don't remember how big it gets, I'm thinking 8-9 inches. It is part of the Genicanthus family and they are the only true reef safe angels. They bother nothing in the tank. The blenny's all have different parts of the tank they call home. The midas is a very active swimmer in the upper half of the tank. The bi-color hangs out on the rocks and the Starry blenny prefers the sand but also roams the rocks. There has been no fighting between them. Thanks everyone for your complements.

Your tank is absolutely gorgeous... I sincerely hope that one day I can create such a stunning reef!
