My Reef from the UK

I thought it was about time to share some pictures of my tank, dont get your hopes up it doesn't compare to some of the wonderful tanks here, but I hope you like it is a 7x4x2.5 ft.

The tank is currently six months old...

Beautiful tank. Give it time. The corals you have look spectacular. Let them grow into the tank and spread out. You will be surprised how quickly your tank will fill up. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to ReefCentral!!!

Nice 520+ gallon tank. I like the layout having a swimming area between the two reefs and the back and front access to your tank. As for the tangs, they are great options to have colorful species that won't eat those corals. I see the yellow tangs appear to be schooling a bit.

I am interested in the fourth picture, it appears to be an orange seahorse? attached to the purple coraline algae covered rock.

You have a nice reef tank, it will continue to flourish.
