GXPKY'S 250g Double D

[GXPKY]

Haven't posted any pics of the fish room lately...and since I just upgraded from a 40 breeder sump to another 100 gallon Rubbermaid stock tank I figured I'd post some pics.

Fuge...100 gallon stock tank

Rock tub...100 gallon stock tank, holding around 500 pounds of rock.

And new sump, 100 gallon stock tank

Replumbed today.

What schedule are you running with your radion/T5 combo?

What schedule are you running with your radion/T5 combo?

I'm running the high growth setting on the radions for 9 hours daily, and the t5s come on an hour after the radions and off an hour before they go off. They run at 85% right now also.

Where did you get the black tub? And what brand is it?

Tractor Supply here sells them for like 80 bucks, 100 gallon Rubbermaid stock tank. I have 3 of them plumbed into my system. Just make sure you tighten the bulkheads that comes with them...every one I've had has leaked if I didn't tighten it down.

Updated pic.

Picked up some Reef Raft Asia acro colonies today. Surprised how much color they still have.

Picked up 4 more Reef Raft Asia acros today, here's a few pics of the frag tank and new colonies, just gotta wait for them to color up now.

New reactor up and running...old reactor is now the effluent reactor.

Well, kept getting large pockets of co2 in the reactors so I tapped the lids.
