The Reef Tank (Older Pictures) 

I started my reef tank in 1999 after graduating from College. The reason being, I really wanted a tank with a porcupine puffer. It's been quite a learning experience since then... These pictures were taken with a 1.3 megapixel digital VIDEO camera as still shots. Consequently the quality is quite poor.
