Trying something new. We will see how it turns out with time. I added a couple of Morrish Idols. So far they have just been eating off the rocks and mysponges in the rocks. Hopefully they will follow the other fishes lead and start eating frozen LRS.

Brad your tank tank is truly inspiring! Can you share a little about how it has come to be such a great tank? Do you dose? CA reactor? Water changes? That sort of thing. Thanks

I believe in great equipment. Deltec is my choice. I run a Deltec AP 702 protein skimmer, Deltec PF 600s calcium reactor and Deltec fluidized reactor for Rowaphos, also a Korallin Bio-Denitrator for nitrate control and ozone. I do weekly 30 g waterchanges and clean all of the equipment and also have a AC bag in my filter sock.
One day when my equipment breaks down I will hit Bill Wann up to get replacements. :).

Hopefully they will start eating the Reef Frenzy® like their neighbors. The tank looks beautiful as always!

I believe he uses skimmer, ca RX, and the Korallin Bio-Denitrator. Could also have a fuge in there, I'm not sure. Brad, I was wondering if you could give me some advice? I am strongly considering getting the Korallin Bio-Denitrator for nitrate removal. I've never used a Sulfer Reactor before. What's your verdict on the Korallin reactor? Is it pretty maintenance free? What work goes into running it, and have you experienced any issues? Pros/cons and anything else about it you can think of? Thanks, I really appreciate it. I've been looking for someone with experience with this reactor to bother with questions so I really appreciate any help you can send my way

Supreme tank, Brad. Do you mind my asking what kind of sand you have on the bottom? I was thinking of going bare bottom on the tank I'm setting up, but thinking I would like to be able to keep some wrasses happy...
