I have a ETSS Skimmer with a Mag 9.5 powering it. I riged up a small air valve control to dial it in just right.

PH monitor, Calcium reactor from Ocean Aquatics and a Wirless Pin point Temp monitor.

I picked up my lighting around Christmas , its a PFO 250 W 10K iwasaki's, with VHO's, and Icecap fans. Im realley happy with the lighting system.

I have a Mag 12 returning from either end with 1/2 inch l valves and a T 4 closed loop returning with 2 3/4 flex hoses on each end. Just enough current.

I am still dialing in the reactor. Calcium is 420, and alk around 9.5, a little low. temp reaches 81 by 9:00 Salinity 1.026

Fish, not much, 1 purple tang ( ive had for about 4-5 years) 1 royal gramma, 5 chromises. I am hoping to purchase 2 true percs and a hippo tang in the near future, maybe a mandarin goby

Corals are as follows:

Grape,Branching hammer, Green torch,Pink bubble coral,BTA,Turbinaria,Pink Montipora Digita,Yellow Montipaora Digita,Green Mont - Cap,Hydnaphoria,Candy cane,Frog ,Red open brain,donut,Purple,tip acro,Cluster acro ( green coralites, blue tips)

I just moved it 3 months ago,and things seem to be doing well. I do a 8 gallon water change every 2 weeks, I use DI for all water.

Thanks for your Comments!!

Any suggestions?

Nice lighting.

Very well done, looks very clean

10k Iwasaki's ?? Don't you mean 6.5K
