    Well, hmmm I always hated this part. I work in IT,  I have a 55 gal. saltwater tank that was set up in Feb. 2006, I haven't done as much as I have wanted to with it and I am in the process of upgrading to a 120 gal. 
    The 55 has a goby and a clown fish, there are several leather corals that I had to frag. It got so big it started killing other parts of itself trying to get light so it had to be fragged. There are some green mushrooms that currently are spreading like wild fire and a recordia trio that I can't get them to move and make more stubbern like me!. There is also 75 lbs of live rock. I guess that's it for now really not much to me.

    Sounds great, welcome to the site.

    Where you from?

    120 is a great size. The four foot length makes it so much easier to light.

    Des Moines Area. I already picked up lighting 4 T5 65w and 2 HQLi 2 x 250 that should go really nice over a 120g I think ( 48x24x24 )
