Hi Guys,

This is my 3ft x 15in x 12in 110 litre reef tank which I have built into the wall in my lounge. Pics might not be too great as taken with my mobile but should give you a general idea!!
Would like to hear you responses to my tank :cool3:

Getting better and better all the time mate.

I am one of the few who has seen the rebirth of this tank from it's days as a community freshwater setup. It just goes to show that with a little thought and planning you can work wonders with a tank on the smaller side.

Well done mate and I look forward to seeing the tank as it matures further

Thanks for the great comments so far, its nice to get a view from others!
Planning on getting another bubbletip or torch coral next. My bubbletip has wedged itself in between two rocks in the centre of the tank and doesnt open out as much as it used to. Poor clowns that host it are struggling to get amongst it!!! :rolleyes:
