Figured that it’s the new year and my tank has been set up for 4 months now and finally cycled, I’d document the progress and skip the boring stuff!
Tank is a marine land 180 with a reef synergy over flow on the end (I hate this tank) sump is a custom 120 gallon 66x24x20.
Return pump is a Vectra M1, probably going to upgrade to dual cor20 for redundancy and so I can use my apex
Lighting is 4 80 watt T5 retro fit and 3 kessil a160, probably upgrading the lights as well. Skimmer is a bubble Magnus curve 9
Fuge light is a 6500k cfl bulb, soon to be a kessil h380

This year I plan on adding an apex dos, geos reef 318 calcium reactor, 4 radion xr15 pros, 4 apex wav pumps and a tone of coral and and select fish!

This is the first FTS of the year.
