It isn't a great Pic, but a 6' tank is hard to get a FTS  Here is an interesting pic, of my FW sharks that I did before I moved to SW  Yes they are in a bathtub, they got to big for the 29g that they were in and didn't have any place for them. |

JB - your tank is really nice looking!!! Now that the Fall Fest has been moved to Cedar Rapids - I think you should add a tour of your tank at the end of the day (for all of us GIRS members from the other part of the state) - since Marion is soooooo close to Cedar Rapids.

Nice tank, Ryan! It's about time you shared your top secret tank with us. Agreed!! Sweet tank, thanks for sharing! I think we all slack off in the summertime, there is just too much else to do all the time. |

That is really nice, I love how full it is! The lighting must be awesome, you've got great colors and looks like awesome growth for 13 months.
Couple questions...
What size tank is it?
What lighting do you use?
Is that a long tentacle or ritteri anemone in the center? |

Thanks AJ, the last 4 - 5 months things have realy started growing....
Tank is 340 gallon display with 150 gallon sump, about 420 gallons total water volume.
I have 3 400watt reeflux 20K bulbs on coralvue e-ballast and 2 160 watt VHO actinics.
The one in the middle is a ritteri I have had about 4 years now, about 30 inches across when fully expanded. I also have green and blue haddoni carpet and a magnifica in there. |
