Hello guys,
I've been commenting for a bit, but I never really did a build thread.
Parameters:
Salinity: 1.026
Temp: 77.8
PH 8.2
Kh 8.5
Calcium 520
Nitrates 10ppm (dosing every other day)
Phosphates (Somewhere above 0 but below .25 ppm)
Ammonia 0
Nitrites 0
Salt: Reef crystals
Liverock: 78 pounds
Sand: 50
Pump: Sicci Quiet 1.5(tank calls for a 270ish gallon pump its grotesque, but return pumps aren't where you get your flow anyway).
Heater: Fluvel E300 heater
Wavemakers Sow-4, and Sow-8 Will be switching the 4 out for a gryre later this month
Filter: Matrix, Chempure blue & liverock.
Tank 75 gallon Seaclear system II AIO
Lights: 2x viparspectra 12.5 inch above tank 60 blue/3 white
Dosing:
Bacter7
Neonitro
Fish:
Mimic Tang
Melanarus Wrasse
2x Mocha Occ Clownfish
Yellow Sleeper HeadedGoby
Others:
Rose BTA
140 random small-large snails Florida ceriths-turbo's
30ish Hermit crab red & blue legged
Unknown amount of random bristleworms.
Coral:
Softy:
Greenstar polyp
LPS:
Cristata Torch
Branching Hammer
Toxic Hammer
pinkish Frogspawn
Blue Duncan
Green Duncan
I will be adding indo gold torches, knicks, a dark one because I think they're pretty and SPS later.
Problems: Decided I had too much sand, and lost a goby somewhere so I rearranged all the rocks in my tank, and took about 10 pounds of sand out. Result: prettier aquascape and dino's (DON'T MESS WITH SAND IT'S JUST BAD!!).
My wife said if I buy her a house with a pool I can get my 180-gallon dream, so this is my practice.
