Just finished setting up my old 135gal (72 x 18 x 24) tank, this tank was set up to incorporate the inhabitants of my 40 gal and 60 gal grow-outs plus some fish I had ' in jail' for not playing in the grow-outs....so here it is... quite pleased with the set up so far will tweak no doubt as I go....

The tanks is actually on the wooden floor built in to my window to give the effect of a window-seat with a viewing window kinda like an indoor pond...here's a pic with the flash to show you what I mean....

So I like this room very much now......
 
The occelaris in the 255 looks stunning! But it looks like your fish are getting big and could use a little less decor in their tank....
 
The Plec is a Gibbiceps (not sure on the L no would have to look it up) it was a much darker brown when I bought it and over the last 6 years has steadily gotten lighter and lighter. The Irwini is around 24" and is nice and fat....there are also 3 Bichirs in there ranging from 10" to 15"(Ornatus,Delhezi and Lapareidi) plus a 10" Ornate Pim...and a 15" C. Johanna Pike
