| my name is Rob and I'm a Zooaholic | I would have to say about 150-200lbs of LR and will be adding more. Only fish I have right now is a Madarian Goby and a Purple Dottyback. I have not decided on what fish I want just yet. I plan to add a auto top off and maybe a fuge in the future. I planned this one and would still do it different the next time

| my name is Rob and I'm a Zooaholic | Thanks Fella's. Craig, I still have the Mandarian for over 3 years now. My Physcadelic dissapeared and the only things to pass away were my Coral Beauty and SailFin Tang  I had some delays getting the new tank up so everything was in rubbermaid containers for about a monthbtw, I don't think I can ever go back to one sided viewing. 3 sided adds a whole new demension to the hobby for me.

| my name is Rob and I'm a Zooaholic | Just a little update: I will be replacing the Mag 18 on the CL shortly. Just waiting for the new MAG 36 to arrive. I hope it is as quiet and cool running as the 18. I added a Flasher Wrasse and never seen it again. Some one told me that my Dottyback may have killed it or stressed it out. And I thought the Dotty was peacefull

| Reef Shark  | Rob, that's coming along quite nicely! It really looks great! I like the dimensions. Gives it lots of depth.
