My new socal creations tank...

Hey guys, i bought this tank brand new from Ramon (Raastamon) a few weeks go and finally got it up and running. It's a 42g 30x18x18 and has rounded edges. Ramon had the stand built by the guy that used to be on here that built stands. It was natural when i got it but stained it a red mahogany color. The sump is a 42g 20x20x24. I'm running a fuge in half and will put the skimmer on the other side. The return pump is a via aqua 2600 and i have two koralia 3's. Lighting is a hamilton reefstar 250w de with the stock 14k bulb.

I still have my pair of true percs, the yellow and blue assessor (which haven't come out much yet)

I couldn't be more happier with the way it turned out!!!

i cycled for a little over a week with a few damsels and a bottle of Stability. Same thing i did when i setup my last tank and had no problems. the tank is cloudy because i added a few more pieces of rock and didn't had my pumps aimed right so the sand was getting stirred up. plus, i had some haze on the acrylic since i hadn't bought a cleaner yet. that pick was taken last night... tonight it's clear as normal.
