![]() Some Progress, Dart pump is installed and running the locline manifold, Reef sand Special grade has been added. I introduced 10 cromises fish to the tank to help the cycling process. Lots of things starting to grow on the rocks now many hitch hikers have been seen, anemones, corals,lots a worms, crabs snails. feather dusters, an unidentified worm thats 4-5 inches long looks like a centipede greeny goldy translucent color. also shrimps and beetle looking things. i added the lights two 400 watt coral vue 20k bulbs powered by electronic Lamatek ballasts. I think i will be adding a third once I get my sps corals in. I am in the process of a fish order I am looking to introduce the fish all at once with as many different tangs possible. So looking to get some good advice on fish selection and suitability. More pics to come.

![]() ![]() The reef tank today still awaiting some lps and sps corals. I have Profilux unit up and running, I'm still working on having it control the lighting and dosing, So far so good, Sure is nice to use the LAN card interface on my shop network, can look at it from any computer connected to the router. the tank is really starting to eat up the carbonate and mag so I'm going to get my reactor hooked up soon. I lost a sea hare in the tank and have not noticed any ill affects whatsoever haven't seen it in weeks, its got to have died. Last edited by JoelV; 03-22-2008 at 02:10 AM. |
