Very nice tank. Transfering from a 29 to a 40 gives you more options.. It looks more empty though :o More corals :D
Wheres your cleanup crew??

Eitherway, the tank looks great.

Excellent looking tank! I like the Firefish, and the Maroon Clown, those are fun fish! Those are exactly the fish I have in my 24AP except they clown is a False Percula.

:D Welcome to the 40 breeder club!!!! It looks very nice! I really like Pookie! Love the name too. I used to have a stuffed animal named Pookie after Garfield's bear. =) I actually call my black clown my Pookie Poo. :rolleye1: I know I know.....has your RBTA moved around much? I'd love to get one, but I don't want it stinging my SPS. I love the caves!

Thanks everyone! :D The RBTA never moved it's been there since day one..it didn't even hit the water and the clown was on it haha..he never leaves it either..when i pulled that rock out to switch tanks, the clown just laid on the RBTA as I pulled it outta the water :lol:

The condi on the other hand is a moving machine..i keep having to move things around for it.

Yes I shall get more corals soon.. the FMAS frag swap is coming up :p and I shall be spending some cheese.

You know everyone bashes the Nova Extreme, because it doesn't have individual reflectors, but I tell you what I love it and from the looks of it your probably loving it too.

ya can't beat the Nova for $175 and free shipping www.bedding.com it is an awesome light fixture..I am happy so far..I plan on keeping softies so it's all good

The condi is cool..I don't mind that it's plain ;) beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Very nice. I love the RBTA/maroon clown. Yours is huge and actually out front. Mine is barely visible in the back of the tank. 40br's are great.

I don't know why people keep bashing the novas. They may not be on par with individual reflector units, but I bet they're better than PCs.

The tank looks very nice, but with the upgrade you've jumped past a nano. I moved this to a more appropriate area of the forum.

=( I still consider it nano. It's not very big!

I keep SPS with the Nova fixture, everything has 2x from the time I set up the tank. I really like it.

People bash is because it doesn't have reflectors and only 140w, but the quality of your water and flow come into play as well.

BTW, I really like your tank, its so clean! I cleaned my 40B last night, now I just need to to the back of the tank lol.
