I bought it at my local hydroponics store, it's made by Botanicare and I think it cost about $100. I've been very happy with it. It's a little more sturdy than some of the others I've seen.

What is the size of your tank and how thick is your glass?
The tank is a 250 gallon peninsula. I believe the glass is 5/8" and I have euro bracing on the top of the tank as well as the bottom.

Here's a FTS from earlier this month. Tank has been funky lately. PO4 has been a little high at .08 and Nitrates are undetectable. I have a little cyano and my corals are looking off. I recently lost a couple frags and my WWC Bounce melted overnight which was the largest one I have seen. I've been doing multiple large water changes in attempt to get everything back on track.

Great tank. I love the separate islands of coral. Giving me some great ideas. Thanks.
Thanks so much!
Have you tried adding a little nitrate powder to get nitrates readable and see if it helps drop the phosphates?
I have not tried that yet but have been leaning in that direction.
Love the new open aquascape, but needs more acros in there :)
Thank you, and yes! I couldn't agree more. I' have some stuff in the frag tank that's almost ready to be moved to my display. I don't like putting small frags in with all my angels.

Beautiful system and love the bandits;)

I also would not want my nitrate at 0....probably why your coral are not happy and you lost your bounce aim for 5ppm
