90 gallons reef tank (mostly live coral and fish) - New tank, set up on June 11, 2006, upgraded from a 55 to this 90. Only a few corals ATM, but as time goes i will slowly add some. Fish seem to love the open space, they normally didnt swim out in the open as much in the 55 but are always out in this 90.
