Here's an old pic of our 300 gal aquarium. It has changed a bit since then. We've sold off a lot of the common sps colonies and got more rare sps frags. The RBTA and clowns went to their own 40 breeder:

Nice Tanks! You got any pics on how it mounted in the wall (Trimmed out)? I'm thinking about mounting one in the wall also.

Thanks for all the comments. It'll be a little bit before I add updated pics of the 300. The whole left end got redone to remove GSP and mushrooms on the rock and the new rock work isn't as nice IMO. A lot of the colonies have also been replaced with frags of different sps.

Here's a couple pics my husband has of when we first got the 300 going. Not the prettiest project.

An older pic showing the trim. We still haven't touched up the calk or painted the trim in its permanent color.:

Here's an old pic of our emperor angel next to a blue carpet anemone. We had to rehome the anemone as the angel wouldn't stop nipping at the anemone's mouth.
