Its been a LOOOOOOOONNNNNGGGG time since I've been around the site. I thought I'd reintroduce myself with a few pics of my current project.
The following pics (low quality iPhone pics) are of a 450 gallon mixed reef...I've tried to emphasize SPS corals, but acquisition has been a bit of a problem for me. I've actually got quite a few non-photosynthetics, more so than I originally planned.
The tanks is about 96L x 36W x 31H, lit by three 400W HQI @ 14K Ushio, with eight 36" HO T5 with a mix of 420 actinic, 460 actinic, and 12K Geismann tubes.
Nice Acanthastrea lordhowensis, Lobophyllia maxima, with rainbow Monti, blue clove polyps, Cyphastrea sp., and a orange Monti. digitata in the background.
yellow toadstool, nice pink Cynarina lacrymalis, and a very nice Blastomussa wellsi

Just a couple of my SPS. These are both old pics. Wish I had a current pic of the birds nest, its much more pink these days.

Non-photosynthetics. There's a Duncanopsammia sp. here next to the rainbow Monti., very cool and not something you see everyday. And a Dendrophyllia sp. I started from a single polyp frag.
-
The fishes! Psuedanthias kashiwae, orange Mandarin dragonet, and my blue dot jawfish

Kind of a cool reflection pic. Took this pic just after a feeding...You can see all the food floating in the water.
And the best full-tank shot I've got right now. Again, sorry about quality, these are taken on my phone.
