What's up fellow reefers. I just had to break down my 90g corner bow front due to a leak. I'm now in the process of resealing the whole tank and I thought I'd use this opportunity to revisit my whole set-up. Before the break down I had a mixed reef with mostly LPS, some monti's, zoas, acros and stylos (all of them are in a temporary holding tank).

So I was hoping to reach out to the group and get some inspiration for this new reefscape. Here's what I've got to work with although I'm open buying additional equipment if necessary since I'm resealing the tank instead of buying a new $2,000 Waterbox ;)

- 90g Corner bow front display
- 20g sump with chaeto refugium, reef octopus 150s skimmer, an eflux current DC return pump and an auto top-off connected to a 4-stage RO/DI
- IceCap Gyre 3k
- Radion g5 xr30 blue

Below are some pictures of my former set-up which was nice but I'd like to incorporate a little more negative space (apologies for the quality they were taken on my iphone). I haven't found many great examples of corner bow front reefscapes so if anyone knows of any, I'd love to see them!

Full tank shot (a terrible one)...wondering if I should use a black for the back glass instead of the blue it has currently?

Here she is empty...and dirty.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 12.2%
  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 7 14.3%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 11 22.4%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 18.4%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 8 16.3%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 4.1%
  • I haven’t really considered this before
