I love it! What else do you have for livestock in the tank? How are you keeping your parameters in line, specifically which method do you use for your Ca., dKH, and Mg maintenance?

achilles is doing alright...seemed as tho the sohal was chasing it around at the start but now he stands his ground
I had the tank built on site when I was doing my basement...Only damaged one sheet... As for parameters, i use luck and gut feeling at the moment...I dont have a calc reactor as yet but try to use the best salt and additives...I know the luck wont last forever but still trying to piece out certain devices to make the tank better..Although I test the calcium, alkalinity and mg often, everything looks good for now... I believe the glass is 22mm

As for the sps not making much of a dent, I now have a new plan that involves giving more money to Red Coral and Coral Masters...

Wow Glen, your tank looks awesome! I met you at Red Coral when you were buying truck loads of salt! How long has it been since you first set-up your tank?

I am looking to get a calcium reactor but trying to find the right size is easier said than done...Have been given a price on one but manually dosing right now so will hold off for as long as I can... Only had a 66g FOWLR previously so if anyone can think of equipment I might need, please let me know... After visiting Coral Master, I realize I need more flow...The 4 Tunze generates just under 13000 gallons per hour but thats only 20 times...I am thinking of getting a couple of Tunze 6201 added to each end which move 5000gph each or 4 of the Tunze 6125 (3170gph) so that I can hide them behind some of the rockwork and move more water in those spots...Would be happy with 40-50 times flow excluding return lines...
