Hi!

My husband and I have been lurking for a few months waiting to post pictures of our new tank. It is a 120 Gallon three sided room divider so I have attached pictures of the front, side and rear. We are probably going too fast but everything is doing very well and we are trying really hard to slow down and show some restraint.

Wow....love those clams and the tank. Can we have some setup and equipment details? Are you direct feeding the clams?

The stand is a custom built 3 sided oak cabinet built by Marinescape in Ottawa, Canada. They also helped us with the Rock aquascaping and supplied us with the Live Rock. We have a 30 gallon sump and a skimmer built by Marinescape. It works like a charm. They have a lot of experience and are very well respected around here for their knowledge of seting up and maintaining reefs. We are truly lucky.

As far as fgeeding is concerned, I alternate between Brine shrimp, Mysis shrimp as well as Argent Cyclop-Eeze. I turn off my pumps and use a Pipette (my wife used to use it to breed our Bulldogs, but I find it to be such a great tool for my reef) to target feed the various points of the reef. I also use zoo-plex for my corals and sponge twice a week.
