Well I finally got time enough to get some photos together of my 140 gallon to show everyone. I set up this tank to replace my 90 gallon I had for a year almost to the day. First off it is a 140 oceanic rr tank that is 48" x 24" x 28" with two overflows that I got from Exotic Aquatics. I have a Melev sump with a ASM G-1x, refugium and a mag 12 return. I have an additional 2 seio 1500's inside tank for circulation. For lighting I am using my existing fixture from my 90 gallon which is a Coralife Aqualight Pro. It includes two 150 watt hqi(both 14k hamilton) and two 96 watt power compacts(both actinic 03). I have approx. 150 lbs. of live rock including figi, kaelini, pukani and tonga. I also have a 1-2 inch sand bed. Coral wise I want to stick mainly with lps and sps. Fish wise, I have a 4 line wrasse, yellow wrasse, bicolor blenny, diamond goby, gsm, 2 firefish. I want to get a madarin eventually along with a couple tangs.

This first pic is of the tank stand and canopy.

Here is a cool rock that I picked up at Exotic Aquatics that had a cave already built into it. I put it in the lower left front corner.

I have more images on my DFWMAS gallery that I finally filled with some pics last night.

Those 14K's look really nice... they really bring out the blues in your tank, and also the bright oranges and yellows... Awesome. You must be exctited about seeing it grow!!

I love that cave! Now that I think about it I may want to do a DIY rock in that exact shape... :)
