    So I thought I would start to post a ton of my pictures from my new 180 gallon tank that I have setup back in march. I have started to add my stock and some corals and other goodies.
    Top of the list:
    180 Gallon Tank W/ 1 1/2'' overflows
    1200 GPH return pump
    (2) Koralia 1400
    200 lbs of Marco's Dry Rock ( THE BEST )!!!
    175 lbs of Fine Sand ( Also from Marco's )
    Super Reef Octopus 5000 SSS Internal ( Amazing )!!!
    300 Watt Finnex Titanium Heater
    (2) Stealth Heaters
    75 Gallon sump W/ Refugium
    Hamilton Technologies 3 X 175 Watt MH 14 K bulbs W/ 2 70'' Blue Actinics (With Blue Nightime LEDS )
    Bulk Reef Supply 75 GPD RO/DI
    Next big purchase is the "  Neptune Apex Controller" and i'm talking the pro. Fully loaded controller, price tag is like 500$, but I've been told its the best around.
    Live stock in 180 is as follows:
    (1) Desjardini Sailfin Tang
    (1) Yellow Tang
    (1) Pacific Blue Tang
    (2) oscellaris Clowns
    (2) Lawnmower Blennies
    (12) Nazareth Snails
    (12) Blue Crabs and Red Crabs
    (12) Snails
    (4) Emerald Crabs.
    Corals Include:
    Bi-Color Frogspawn
    Hammerhead Coral
    Green Kryptonite Candycane
    Toadstool
    Like I said, this is pretty new tank setup, but it's coming along great, just as long as my bank account doesn't dry up!

    So I have no clue how to post pictures to this thread, or if it will even allow you too. So in that case, I have updated the 180 gallon tank build in the picture section of our reef region. Check them out, a lot of things have happened since the last update... Including the sump move into the adjacent room!

    Sounds like a nice setup. There's an Apex for sale in the Buy/Sell forum right now...nice price too!

    The easiest (IMO) way to post pics is to start a photobucket account. It's free and you can upload pics there and link them. I prefer this method simply because I have the pics ready to be posted to any site I please this way. Photobucket provides each picture with its own unique link code. It is as easy as copying the link code of the pic and pasting it into your text box. PM me if you need more help.

    I Have a serious ich infestation, and I do not have the $ to afford a huge quarantine tank to treat my fish... I have 3 tangs and two clowns. Is there anyone out there that is willing to treat my fish for me in there hospital tank, or lend me a tank to treat my fish in?
