Nice tank! I know nothing about reef tanks, but it looks pleasant. So maybe you can tell us which one is more difficult: keeping a reef tank, or cultivating carnivorous plants?

Very nice, thanks for taking the time to share! I have a 110gal I've been thinking about switching over... for years... lol Maybe one day I'll finally do it.

I sold it about a year ago. I son was about 6mo and required a lot of time (This was a good thing) work was crazy (70 hr. weeks) and we where buying a house! So I was out of spare time.

Makes me miss my saltwater tanks...

I'm starting to miss it too.

Reef is 10x more time consuming and 100x more expensive. And I think both are equally rewarding, so for now I'm gonna stick with CP's!

It's a ton of work. For my 180 I spent a min of 30-45 a day during the week and 1-2 Hr on the weekend, and that's the minim that doesn't include tinkering time!

Thanks
