Looking good! So you have like 850 gallons total? Got any pic's of the rest of the system?

 

[LegoZ81]

Somthing around that for the system volume.
I don't have new pics yet. It is still a work in progress. If I can get the skimmer and frag tank moved and a new feeds plumbed to the 125 them this weekend, I'll post up some pics. Right now everthing is chaotic :D

300lbs of oolitic sand in the 125g now, see if that help stabilize this beast a little, also manual removal of much of the algea has taken place. Thank you to Twinspots_goby for all the help and dealing with me till 1a last night :O lol

 

[LegoZ81]

Pics of the pair of 150g's, FragTank, and 125g are up added into the first post.

[LegoZ81]

it is possible to edit the time a post was entered? I hit the max images in my first post and would like to keep things consolidated to the top of my thread if possible.

Very nice. Your grow out system (125) is my DT!!! Ha. Awesome looking

 

[LegoZ81]

It's my old DT as well :D Thanks

 

[twinspots_goby]

2 Tunze 6125 replaced in main tank with 3 Korallia Magnum 8 and the Vortechs moved to the back wall on reef crest sync. even with CaribSea Special Grade Reef Sand it's getting blown around lol...need to figure out how to deal with the bare spots maybe some flat pieces of rock on the tank floor

 

[Mike&Terry]

Very nice tank. Thanks for sharing!

We had problems with Caribsea Special Grade as well and ended up switching to Tropic Eden Reef Flakes and Mini Flakes.

Yeah i am not sure what to do about the sand... it is bad lol i'll have to get some pics. Do you think you whould have been happy with just the Reef Flakes?

 

[LegoZ81]

I was starting to blow tissue off of my plate and a few other corals, I backed the vortech's down to somewhere between 50-75%.

Old Fragtank now Juvi clown tank

The Reef Flakes are great. We accidentally ordered the mini flakes later thinking they were the Reef Flakes, lol. The mix for us is good as we ended up adding more of the mini flakes to the middle section of our tank where our leopards like to sleep.

Those baby clowns are growing fast! :D
