There really isnt much to my sump, skimmer, zeo reactor, carbon chamber, and 2 return pumps. Quiet One 4000 (return to display) Mag 9 (return to fuge and frag tank, and also branches off to chiller). No baffles at all and I still dont get any micro bubbles.

On a side note, I love my Euroreef skimmer, the skimmate in the pic is 4 or 5 days worth of the thickest goo, its so disgusting its beautiful ( I like to feed my fish really well).

Can I live in your tank? Well done.

Is there any interest in any of these corals?
I want to do a large pruning but I need for the frags to go somewhere.
Let me know.

I know there hasn't been a post on here in a little while but I have a question reguarding the light fixture you are/were using. I'm interested in purchasing one of the Sun Blaze 48 fixtures for use over a 75 gallon SPS reef I'm building and am wondering, from your experience, what the pros and cons are to using this system on a reef. Appreciate your input very much as there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of folks who use this light setup. Thanks!

Pros:
Very bright with individual reflectors
very little heat transfered to tank
lots of bulb combinations

Cons:
no built in fans
no place to put a splash guard
and for some reason they built this light with the 2 switches so you can run it in 2 - 4 bulb combos, problem is, there is only 1 power cord, so all the bulbs have to run off one timer.
