Jarry's 77 gallon SPS/LPS

Jarry · Oct 20, 2020

This is my 2nd reef tank, now runnig for 10 months, first tank was 30 gallon started with mostly soft corals, then I moved to LPS, then SPS. I'm still running 30 gallon as a frag tank and quarantine for corals.

Tank was started with combination of dry and live rock, I've never used any bacteria from bottle, all is running on combination skimmer + chaeto and original Balling dosing (Ca+KH+NaCl free salt). Then feeding, thats it.

Fish:
- Ctenochaetus strigosus
- Nemateleotris magnifica
- Gramma loreto
- Paracheilinus carpenteri (pair)
- Pterapogon kauderni) (pair)

Setup:
- main tank 130x50x45cm
- DIY light, 24x XT-E royal blue, 24x XP-E blue, 24x XT-E 6500k white, 6x XT-E 3500k white, 12x 410-420nm violet, 12x 395-400nm violet, 6x 660nm red, 6x 520-530nm green - around 300W in total, running at 65% at the moment, simulating Radion SPS AB+
- 2x Tunze 6095 powerheads

Sump:
- very simple 17 gallon with 3 chambers
- Chaeto in first with DIY light 10x 660nm red, 2x royal blue, 2x 420nm violet, 2x cool white
- Tunze 9410DC skimmer in second
- return pump in last one
- DIY arduino based dosing (Balling original) and monitoring, with alert to my phone in case of power outage

I have some new additions to the tank, I finally moved Acans (I can't wait how the rainbow one will looks like in 1-2 years) from the frag tank + I bought Dragon Soul E. glabrescens and nice Trachyphyllia. And some recent full tank image.
