Here’s some early pictures of my Waterbox Peninsula 160G. It’s about 6 months old now, dark rocks growing coralline algae.

I’ll post some under the stand and updated display pictures tomorrow.

Update, I plumbed a 20 gallon cube into my main display. I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while, mainly to keep something that conflicts with what I’ve already got.

Decided to make it a clam tank for my Derasa to get it enough light. My main tank is set pretty low for my Gonis and other LPS.

Updated top down of my 20 gallon clam tank. Some SPS too, showing good growth.

Once I get a chance to clean my glass I want to post updated pictures of the whole system. It’s looking great after 8 months.

Here’s an update on my setup, 1 year 2 months after getting it wet.
I’ll try to take some equipment pictures next.

Is this the Peninsula 6025 or a custom build? Tank has matured nicely!
Close! It’s the Waterbox 4825. I bought it on sale when they were getting rid of their last few units.
Plenty of space, but I’d love to have a 6ft 6025 too.

My next tank (probably 10+ years down the road) will be at least 300 gallons. I want to get a Giga clam, and my Derasa will need some room too.
Acrylic if possible, the seems on the left front are starting to look sketchy

I’ve got a toplids top on the way too, my chalk bass has jumped out for the last time!

Some closer photos of my livestock.

My toadstool leather is mad because I finally got the phosphates low recently.

That's a lot of big fish in what, a 4ft tank? Not much space to swim or hide. Just my opinion.

Yeah it’s 4ft.

There are caves made from the front and rear islands they hide in.
I agree, they’re not all full grown. As they mature I may need to rehome some. The blue Atlantic tang is gaining size fast.
