Wow! I love how you have a top main DT and lower. This is what i think id like to do.. you have the best of everything mixed reef and right below it a tank for other interesting creatures you normally cant keep in a mixed reef all plumbed together! Do you have any recent FTS? great tank dude!!

No recent FTS but I'll take one next time I got my camera out and post it here. It's defiantly a challange keeping the two tanks happy, basically some stuff will do good and other stuff will not. You just have to find the ballance and try to aviod the stuff that doesn't do that well.

No Problem. Pretty standard maintenance, weekly water changes (about 5%), weekly skimmer cleaning, some random dosing and keeping calcium reactor full.

I recently redesigned and constructed a new filtration cabinet, although I have to redo the sump as I need to change the pump position, it's basically done and working well.

I got a mate yesterday.

Looking good SP! thanks for the pics.. man i havnt had seahorses for 4 years prob now.. everytime i see them i miss them even more! This is why id love to do a setup similar to yours.. ++ i love cube tanks its either a cube tank or 60x30x24 but i prefer the cube look..not so much a fan of long tanks.

Thanks Mik, I also like the cubes but I'd really like to do a 6' x 3' foot print for a little more room.

How often and what do you feed it?
