well i guess its time for a quick update. so the tank has been at my parents hourse since moving into my current residence. The owner of the house would not allow the tank and was not willing to let me install the RO at the hour and said rent would go up and for what i am getting for how much it costs, it was not worth it and my parents were more than willing to take the tank off my hands. So after deciding i am giving the tank to my day for his birthday which is coming up. but i still get to get into the tank to steal frags for the new tank which is soon since i will be moving again...

well here are a few pictures. it has been running skimmerless for the past 2 months which i have to figure out if it needs to be replaced or not.

LOL oh i am scared when I buy a new skimmer, I have been looking at the SWC Xtreme 120 Cone. I am sure the SPS would love it.

But this tank has been through alot in the past 3 months, lost 1 colony, 3 frags and to top it off Flat worms. grrr but there is some nice aussie stuff in there and the digi's are going nuts. switching from reefersbest to H2Ocean was the best thing i have done for this tank

that it is, when I set up a tank in my apartment 1/2-2/3 of that colony is getting chopped.... my parents can have the base lol

Thanks doug, noticed a massive increase in the tanks quality after switching to H2Ocean salt on this tank. After being on Kz reefers best since 09 and than switching in july my growth has increased and my colors are amazing.

First time I have seen your thread! I don't know how I missed it! I really like the dimensions of this tank. Your growth is really good too!

Are you meaning you used Reefer's Best, changed to H2Ocean in July, and notice the changes on the H2Ocean? Interesting...
