    Sounds like you are off to a great start! I'm just starting to build my 120g as well. Just got the tank set on the stand last weekend actually!

    Here's a slight update to the tank. It's been up for about 7 months now and there are an assortment of new corals added. Just got a purple tang also!

    Looks good. Is that set up and a peninsula? It looks like the overflow is on the end.

    Yep I set it up as a peninsula between my livingroom and front door. I'm thinking about building some sort of lid to prevent the lights from flooding the livingroom.

    Thought I would update my tank build with some of the corals I have in the tank now days. Slowly growing... Takes a while to fill up a 120 gallon tank. Also a picture of one of my fighting conches. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
