Daniel's 180g Mixed Reef

Look good bro!
 
Thanks, Rev! Been having a PO4 issue, but just about got it under control. Planning to add some more high end pieces in the next few months.
 
Here's a stock list that I worked up toward the end of last year.

Possible fish for 180:

Tangs:
· Blue Hippo Tang
· Blonde Naso Tang
· Purple Tang
· Yellow Tang
· Red Sea Sailfin Tang
Wrasses:
· Christmas wrasse (pair) (Halichoeres melanurus)
· Golden Rhomboidalis Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus rhomboidalis)
· Orange Back Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus aurantidorsalis)
· blue star leopard wrasse (Macropharyngodon bipartitus)
· Carpenter’s Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus carpenteri)
· McCosker’s Flasher wrasse (Paracheilinus mccoskeri)
· Eightline Flasher Wrasse (Paracheilinus octotaenia)
· Yellow-Flanked Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus lyukyuensis)
· Bluehead Fairy Wrasse (Cirrhilabrus cyanopleura)
Clowns:
· Pair of Black Ice Clowns or Phantom Clowns (would love the frostbite clowns...but can't do the high price)
Anthias:
· Bartlett’s Anthias (trio)
Others:
· Copperband butterfly
· Green Mandarin Goby
· Starry Blenny
· Blue Reef Chromis (trio)
· Yellow Candy Hogfish
· Midas Blenny

I should probably note that at present I have the pair of melanarus wrasses, a green mandarin goby, and a large filefish.

I just placed my first order with Saltwaterfish.com.

Here's what's coming:

- Copperband Butterfly
- Carpenter's flasher wrasse
- harlequin shrimp(I have some evil asterina stars...that need to be gone from each of my systems...he'll start out in the 180 and then move to the biocube and then to the frag tank and then to the 120...he'll be on rotation. LOL)
- arrow crab (same deal as the shrimp...this guy is going on pest control duty)
 
Newest additions being acclimated. :D

Those were all pieces from the recent coral swap in Cleveland.

Here are some of the other pieces that have been in the tank for a while.

We're using Luxeon Rebels and Luxeon M chips (12w LEDs). Should be powerful enough to cook some coral. ;)
