Smile vega15 In wall 180 gallon w/100 gallon fuge-14K HQI 150W w/4 T-5 Actinic mixed reef

Here are some pics of my ever growing mixed reef tank. I have had it up now for just over 5 years. I have been careful in letting my tanks "Grow" so as not to look like a 180 gallon frag tank! LOL
So far so good thanks to the many people out there who are willing to share their information with me and are not afraid to give me pointers from time to time. Thanks to all
I would also like to thank the many people who have had an interest in trading/buying/selling with me. With out these folks I would not have the diversity of animal life in my tank that I have.

Let me know what you guys and gals think...here we go...

Thanks guys. I took some new pics today as this thing is constantly growing and changing. I am not very good with my cheap-o camera but you get the idea.

I think that all of our tanks look better in person so if anyone wants to stop by to see it and talk reef just let me know!

Anyone want to come over and take some better pics for me!?! LOL

LOL, I was thinking the exact same thing!

Love the ricordea tower, Im a huge ric fan myself. Those mangroves look like they are doing really well for you too.

What's your favorite coral in your tank? Which one was the first you put in?
