Specs are 210 (72×24×29) running a 40 breeder sump with a fuge. Can't remember the name of my skimmer but it's a downdraft skimmer running 2 mag 12. I also am running an Aqua 57 watt and 25 watt uv. Flow consist of 4 jebao wp 40 and 2 jebao wp25. Dosing is done via dosing pump and I use seacheam calcium advantage for calcium and I make my own alk with baked baking soda. I travel a great deal for my job and unfortunately didn't have time for the sps as at times I'm gone 3 weeks at a time. I sold all the sps and went lps for a few months and realized I don't care for the lps so now have sold most my lps and bought all my original frags back plus some. I'll get an updated pic soon.

Well I couldn't stay away from the sps and currently have several growing out. I changed the lights up and now running led / t5 over the sps tank.

Beautiful tank. I'd love to see new photos. Also any chance of a photo of the fuge area? What are you using for lighting the fuge and what algae are you using?

Looking at last set of pics it looks like you've got some cool named pieces. Love to see how they look now.
