That's a cool name. Let's stick with that for those. Or... Just make up you own name and sell them for $35 a polyp. Lol
 
Came home to a dead powder brown today.

Tomorrow will be the tanks first birthday.
 
That stinks, man. Sorry to hear that. Any idea what happened?

Well today is considered my tanks first birthday and it's came a long ways. Almost all of the tanks original equipment has been changed out.

Here is the oldest FTS I could find:

Here are a couple from today, first is T5's only:

Here is MH and T5's:

Equipment upgrades made since tanks birth:

Return pump: EcoPlus 1267 to Mag12
Powerheads: Four Koralia 1400s to two MP40wES and one Jebao WP40
Skimmer: EuroReef CS 8-2 to SRO XP-2000 Cone
Sump: Used GC sump to Custom Synergy Reef
Lighting: Two T5's on Workhorse ballast and two 250 watt MH on ARO ballasts to Giesemann Infiniti fixture with four T5's and two 250 watt MH.

So pretty much all that remains from the original set up equipment wise is the tank, stand, controller, JBJ ATO, Atomic top off box and, the dosing pumps.

It's been a fun (and expensive) first year going for bigger and better in the next.
