latteslave Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 That is one stuffed tank! Miss this thread (and the 20 long). Looking back through these, still one of my favorite tanks. Someone with a 20 should take over... I can clean it up, add the new ones if we can get a volunteer and a mod will give them OP to make changes... Just sayin' Link to comment
markalot Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Bump for more 20 long pictures. Mine, before I had a mini-cycle. Link to comment

markalot Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 It's been too long since the last update. I swear this tank is temporary, but never the less I'm running a third tank, a 20 long, for a few months. Link to comment
markalot Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Looks good Mark! Bah, still has the old coraline "stains" from over a year ago. But thanks. I would like to see more 20 longs in this thread, it used to be active. Maybe the 20 long is a dying breed ... Link to comment
Arkayology Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Bah, still has the old coraline "stains" from over a year ago. But thanks. I would like to see more 20 longs in this thread, it used to be active. Maybe the 20 long is a dying breed ... Trends come and go. When I started keeping reefs in 2009, 20L, 20H, and 40B were a big deal, but now there are a lot more companies making rimless and more custom tanks. I think you are right, they are a dying breed.
