Casey's 120g Peninsula Build

[CaseyP]

1 year + 2 month full tank shot update. Things are picking back up again now that the dinos have mostly receded. Acros are coloring back up and I picked up a couple new ones to replace the ones lost. Picked up a cheapo $100 macro lens off eBay not too long ago for fun so played around with it. Tbh I'm pretty impressed with the quality for the price.

How much light/flow does the bernardpora get? Trying to get my frag into a happier spot!

I keep it at the bottom and gets ~180 par at peak light ramp. It does like flow

Tank was taken down this week and livestock was moved to a new tank I didn't do a great job with journal upkeep but it's amazing to look back on the progress. Lots of ups and downs, but a lot of enjoyment and lessons learned. The final pictures from the end of December

The tank looks fantastic, why did you take it down?

Tank looks amazing
but pardon my confusion…
are to 2 pics the same tank, and one is left side and the other the right side?
or the same tank at two different times?
its awesome either way

Looks like right then left, just play connect the GSP haha. Really great job @CaseyP ! Having a true mixed reef like this is really difficult and you seem to have had success with all types of lighting and flow needs.

Yes, it is the peninsula one side and the other. The frag rack and the overflow are another visual clue.

 

[CaseyP]

Yup a peninsula. Loved being able to see one side from the dining room and the other from the living room couch. Unfortunately new house layout doesn't have a spot for a peninsula so traditional against the wall for the new tank. Unless some day open concept goes out of style and I need a room divider
