Well, I figured I should start up a thread for my new tank, set up yesterday. The tank is plumbed into my 90 gallon system for a total water volume of 145 gallons. In the 90 I am wanting to make the tank more SPS oriented but I was not willing to give up the zoas so I set up their own tank. So this tank is going to primarily be zoanthids and palys, with a few acans and goniopora mixed in. The tank is a 40 breeder with 70lbs. of live rock and 60lbs. live sand. For lighting I went with a 250 watt MH with 2 32 watt PC's. I was planning on doing T-5 lights but I came into a pendant that had a mogul socket and 2 PC sockets for free, so I couldn't pass that up.
For flow I am using 3 nano Korallias and a Korallia 1 on a wave maker for sporadic flow that the zoas and palys love. I have a mag 5 as a return pump. I have a rather large zoa garden in my 90 gallon tank that I am transferring into the 40 today.
Here are some pictures of the tank as it went up yesterday!
70lbs of rock some of those are huge!
Sand and rock
First water!

I will keep this updated as often as possible!
