Doug I take it you sold your 170g tank. Looking good. If you decide to sell your copperband, put me down on the list.

Yes I did.

The kole and copperband now reside in my 55g sump for now, along with my 5 pyjama cardinals. It has lots of live rock and is filtered with my turf scrubber.

Not sure whats going back into the 90. The cardinals eat to much frozen foods. The tang is the only fish that requires clip algae and flakes. And the copperband likes the looks of my new acros. , although he is likely the leader for a return.

I will keep the Kole, only if I cant find him a good home, as I raised him from a baby.

That last full tank pic showing the limited rock, just does not do it for me. Not sure how others like that set-up.

Overflow pics. just drilled the back and went a different route. Work dandy so far.

As I have not covered the back yet, you can still see the plumbing.







Please forgive the remains of the price tang in the one shot. DOH!! Last pic of the right side, shows the return pipe from the Mag 12

Looks great Doug!

Put more rock in.

Are you just putting together a sump right now? Still gonna use the ATS on this system?

What lighting did you put over that?

Oh, one more question Those acro's look nice, stags? Are they cultured locally? I just noticed the plugs..

Thanks!

Hi Jack,
Thanks for the input. I have two votes for more rock now. My 55g rubbermaid sump is being used. Lots of rock in it, plus my tank, copperband and 5 cardinals. I,m also running my needlw wheel skimmer for now.

Yes, the scrubber is running from the sump, currently. Not sure if I will use it though, once I start up my beckett skimmer.

I have a pair of Sunlight Supply pendants. Driven by 175w Icecap ballasts. Currently running a pair of Ushio 10K bulbs, but have purchase a pair of Coralvue 14K bulbs.

Also running a pair of T-5 actinics.

I believe the acros are Bali aqua-cultered.
