Holee mackerel, that's a beast

Good find, it looks brand new!

Is it possible to over-skim?

[Madmak]

It still had the plastic on the acrylic in places but was in use for several years. I may scrap the 2 Eheim 1260s and use a Mag 12 I have just for space reasons.

It came with 2 huge reactors as well, not sure I can use these yet.

Yikes! I've never seen such a powerful skimmer. Dialed in wet it pulled almost 2 liters of light coffee skimmate in less than 24 hours. Dialed down now of course.

$2400 MSRP?? That's nuts!

Wow - great deal!

A couple critter pics, all seem happy but a purple tang that has signs of self induced ich. He's not big enough to pick the fights he is with the powder blue.

Put all new bulbs in the fixture, thanks Dave , and now will let things mature for a while. Did a 50 gallon water change today by hand so that should motivate me to finish of the plumbing between the mixing station and DT.

There has been a flurry of activity with my tank lately, added another light, UV, some fish, and nearly 60 pieces of coral. I will catch up in the next posts but had to show off these guys

Wowee, nice additions

More pics please

Not even entirely sure what I have exactly but here is a 3 part FTS left to right. All iPhone pics



And a few more unique pieces...
