08can-am March 3, 2013 Share March 3, 2013 Hey everyone. I figured I'd make a tank thread to update changes along the way. I upgraded to this from a 150DD and moved everything over Christmas Eve once it was finished cycling. -marineland 300 dd starphire with Monterey stand/canopy -3-- nova a6 led fixtures - flow is 3 tunze 6125 and 1 6145 -skimmer is a SRO 6000sss - return pump is a 4100gph reef octo pum - misc tunze ozmolator, BRS dual reactor, 20 long plumbed in with the sump as a fuge Stock Blue hippo, show size blonde naso,unicorn, purple tang, chocolate tang, tiny tomini, pair of Picasso clowns, some chromis, cardinals, two pistol shrimps, Corals Since I recently lost almost all of my sps for reasons I still can't figure out its missing a lot of what I've been growing for almost 2 years I do however have a lot of different zoas. Some regulars some a little more "fancy". A couple branching digi's(shocker they lived). A couple big neon green toad stools. Pretty large pagoda cup. 4 clams. And some others. 2 years into this hobby is say I'm hooked. (Pics to follow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

08can-am March 4, 2013 Author Share March 4, 2013 The pagoda cup is covering the bottom part coming forward but I think it fits well there. Plans now to cover it in some sweet zoas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.x-ray July 20, 2013 Share July 20, 2013 Wow, what a nice tank. I am always happy to see the big tanks that don't look barren. Yours is stuffed - I love it. I like the rock work also. Like how most of it only goes about half way up for some good swimming room. Roughly, how many pounds is in there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08can-am July 20, 2013 Author Share July 20, 2013 (edited) I like the rock work also. Like how most of it only goes about half way up for some good swimming room. Roughly, how many pounds is in there? I yhink there is about 150 pounds. Maybe a little more thats minus the 50 pound piece of tonga branch. courtesy of my sweet S4 Edited July 20, 2013 by 08can-am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
