shawns 90g whatever reef


Recommended Posts

i thought that since my wife was sharing her nano, it was time for me to step up and show off my tank a little too. for those of you who dont know, i recently upgraded from a 46bf to the 90g. :clap:

 

i entitled it whatever because thats how i feel about what im going to have in it. there will always be the reasonable amount of discretion, but if i happen to find something that i like, and it's compatible w/ what i already have, it's goin in! :drink:

 

lighting: dual pfo 175 mh, 14k hamilton. 2 420nm t-5s w/ individual reflectors.

 

filteration: 29g sump w/ diy trickle filter and gsa shorty skimmer. mag 7 return. various lr from 46g and sand from danskim.

 

movement: return pump and tunze 6060.

 

here are some pics i just took earlier this evening.

im considering adding 2 more t-5s in my hood. that would make 4 t5's and dual 175 mh's. i havent had a par meter to see what it is. all of that light might be over kill. then again, some of us have 400w mh w/ no problem. i was just worried about over saturating the tank w/ light.

 

the grand total would be:

2 175w 14k hamilton

1 6.5k

2 aquablue

and either 1 pure act or 1 act+

 

im looking for any and all advise.
