burtbollinger's Reefer 170

burtbollinger · Oct 26, 2017

This is a brief look at my tank at 10 months....LPS focused with a few "easy" SPS frags on top...no softies will be added other than existing bam bam zoas.

I pre-planned most of the corals this go-around and am pretty much finished adding corals...my goal is to let everything grow very large vs. a lot of small frags.

the last corals will be a few more small acans, a jack-o-lantern leptoseris, and a red planet acro...

Fritz RPM salt....7.5 gallons changed weekly.
Alk. at 8.8, maintained by Bionic 2-part.
Dosing Aquavitro Fuel (under the recommended amount)
Livestock - 2 clowns, 1 royal gramma
Filtration is: Curve 5 skimmer, Avast Spylass running small amount of GFO, Purigen, Rox carbon
Lighting is a Nanobox Duo M.
Tank is spot fed Reef Chili 1x per week, fed 1x per day LRS Reef Frenzy Nano

Brilliant work. Seeing this tank just clinched it for me....I'm getting a 170 ASAP.

thanks...been plugging the gaps lately with a few more acans...and I got my jack-o-lantern lepto in place. Will post an update soon...I think you'll really love the RSR 170...been doing this a long time, and it might just be my favorite piece of equipment I've ever purchased.
