190 gallon aquarium

[mrdarieus]

Greetings ARC I'm getting a 190 gal tank this weekend and was wondering if I can get some suggestions on lightning and stocking (fresh and/or salt water). I know it's going to be costly so I intend on taking my time!!! All suggestions are welcomed.
By the way price isn't a factor (low to high high to low) I have all the time in the world to make this my best tank ever.
current setup:
75 gal SW
55 gal FW
30 gal FW
Thanks Darieus

Do you prefer a fish only system or reef ? I think most people in this forum are partial to reef/Fowler setups, and may have the best advice for SW related topics IMO.

Great size tank for a reef or fowlr.
Of course...there is quite a bit of difference in the set up.

Sometimes I wish I had gone Fowlr instead of reef. I LOVE the fishes... and there are a lot I cant have.

Now is the time to think it all the way out.

Enjoy!

What is your 75g setup as? any pics? Are you planning on consolidating the 75 into the 190 or are you starting a whole new system independent of what you already have going. There are so many great options out there. I personally don't think I could do FOWLR unless there were a shark in the tank. Coral is just too neat IMO.

One of these days soon I am going to have to add a FOWLR. My wife loves the fish (not that I don't) but doesn't care so much about the corals. I am just the oppisite. Solution???? MORE TANKS!!!! LOL
