United Kingdom Reef Club Full Tank Shots

[SPR1968]

So guys we’ve now set up our own club for our little island, so how about introducing yourself with a picture of your tank!

I’ll start the ball rolling so here we go.

The tank was started in June 2016 from scratch.

2016 Red Sea Max S 650

Hi all,

UK based Reefer Couple (Luke and Liz), 12 years and 6 years experience respectively. We are waiting the arrival of a Red Sea Reefer 750XXL on the 26th Jan.
The previous serious tank was a 4 x 2 x 2 mixed reef / SPS Heavy.

(sorry its a grainy photo but its the only real one i have left )

Will get a new tank photo up when its up and running!

Find her favourite fish.... claim it needs it's own tank and set it up for her.... That's how Luke got me into the hobby and yeah.... That's how he got his 750XXL

Try seahorses.... or use the whole- if you want baby pipefish (cause let's face it what's cuter that adult pipefish?) They need a bigger/ deeper tank etc...!

Hi guys, I'm Ben from North Oxfordshire.
I've been reefing a while now, but picked up a Red Sea Reefer 170 in September last year, so it's still in a state of flux and work in progress.
I mostly work from home, so have time to dedicate to the hobby.

Hello one and all,
i have just one year of marine animal husbandry under my belt,
Talk about a steep learning curve!
Here's some photos of my tank, its had water in exactly a year now, i don't think i'm getting great growth [ not sure what constitutes good growth ] and i can't get my Alk down now matter how many water changes i do [ 20% per week], its at 13-16, lowest i've had is 10, [ using red sea pro test kit - in date ] i'm not dosing alk, i have just changed salt to red sea blue bucket which has lower Alk than the pro bucket i was using and i'm going to try hydrogen-chloride to bring it down slowly,
Hope to share your experiences / advice to learn more
regards,
Nik

Hi I’m Charlotte from Fareham, this is natural seawater setup about 2 years old. Sumped, Deltec and Bubble Magus skimmers, refugium and running various 3x 150w MH and 2x AI LED and a chinese black box runs with a calcium reactor and recently switched to NOPOX via doser. Been keeping aquariums since the late 80s and go into Marine late 90s had a break for a while then got back into big time few years ago. This is a mixed reef dominated with sps and I have a particular passion for Montipora, Porites and Zoa.
