Hello to all again! I have been very impressed with the help and information that is available on this site. I have decided to use this as my schools "offical" tank page for information and as a place to chronicle it. Can I do such a thing? I have sent my students here to do research on salt water fish tanks. Everyone is terrific here! I have learned a tremendous amount.

I will be posting pictures with the progress of our tank. Any help is always appreciated. I purchesed this tank with a air pollution grant that I applied for last year.

Here are the specs I know off the top of my head:

200 gallons
200 lbs of live rock
live sand mixed with play sand from home depot
2 x 96w lights (10,000K + actinic and daylight bulb that I cannot find out what type of bulb it is.) We are looking into uping these lights and adding halides. Not near enough, I know!

I will post the skimmer and plumbing setup specs in the next few days.

We are cycling the tank right now.

Thanks everyone and I cannot wait to see how this progresses through time.

Cheers!
