The 175 gallon oceanic bowfront/stand/canopy with 60 gallon sump + wet/dry filter and red sea berlin skimmer. The tank has 4-8" of sand (deeper in the back) a tiny amount of rock (just set it up the other day) and the water is still clearing (had water in it all of 48 hours, but was set up before so the bio media is still 'alive').
(For reference, the mag-float on the left side is the 2nd to largest!)

(Complete with haunting reflections...)

The system:

~1200 gph through the wet/dry, and ~400gph through the skimmer

(The foam padding on the return hoses is for noise reduction...I've managed to get the tank almost silent!)
The inhabitants:
Baby Mappa (likes to throw hissy fits when not fed...constantly)

FEED ME!

Camera shy dogface

and a baby brown-banded bamboo shark egg (no pic).
Anyway, we're excited about our new system, and hope to provide you guys with more pics soon!
Us!
