Those tanks are incredible.

But I don't think there is an L shaped tank. I think there are two tanks positioned in an L formation. One has black sand (Leo tank) and the other has light sand (Bichir tank?)

beautiful! is your reef a bare bottom?

Yes it is.

Such an achievment to have all your tanks looking like that.

We could ID those mystery catfish for you if you'd like.

Been trying to get a good pic of them, I'll post as soon I get one.

Well the 90g planted has a fuval 403 and get about a 10% every two weeks or when ever my gf gets around to doing it. Now the 110g reef has a 50g sump with a mag12 pump, turbotwist36 uv serilizer, a aquamedic protien skimmer and a reef perfections protien skimmer (just because there is two), phosban reactor 150 with a small pump running it and the uv. The 200g has a
44g sump and a mag24 pump with large overflow in the tank loaded with bioballs and filterfloss and sponge doing the mechanical cleaning part. Nice and simple. The 400g pretty much the same as the 200g but has a mag36 (way two loud) and a 75g sump. The 300g has a 50g sump and a mag24 running it but it also has a turbotwist 36 uv serilizer.

Now I have 100g resivor which is 50% tap water and 50% r/o water, which is filled every 24 hours so every monday 100g change on the 200g. Tues 100g on the 400g. Wed 100g on the 300g. Thurs day off. Fri 100g on the 400g. Sat 100gon the 300g and sunday I do 10% on the 110g reef.

Wow, sounds like an amazing setup.

Now I noticed that you have UV on only one of your tanks. Just curious whats your reasoning with only one on that specific tank and not the others?
