Final upgrade

[reefcanada]

I was asked to put my final upgrade up here and start a journal. The tank is 560 gals 72X60X30 and is all gorgonians and nps corals. It has been running for about 8 months now. I didn't want big bulky glass euros over my tank so I went with a stainless steel top frame.

I have changed a few things on the tank, removed one of the return pumps and added and moved the power heads a few times to get everything just so. The return pump is a jebao dc12000, There are 4 RW-8's at the top, a mp60 at the back bottom and a WP40 in the front left corner. The flow in this tank has been very challenging to get just right.

It is lite by 3 250 HQI halides, with the minimal rock work I don't need to cover the whole tank with light and the corals don't need a ton of light either.

The sump is 60X34X20, the water flows into a cryptic fuge. Then into a small cheato chamber, then finally threw 4-4" filter socks. After that it goes into the skimmer, which is a reef octopus int-300 and my bio-pellet reactor.
