JerSaint's 90

JerSaint · Jan 23, 2017

It's about time I started thread on a tank that has been in progress for so long! This will be my main display tank (at least for a while:). Equipment as follows: 90G RR tank with a 40B sump and a custom stand built by yours truly. Jebao DCT-12000 return and Jebao PP-15 for wave makers. Eshopps PSK-150 w/ Sicce Syncra 1000 pump (won at Fragtoberfest!) running it. Beast of a light on this thing should make just about any coral happy, ATI 8-bulb dimmable Sunpower!

The plan is for a mixed reef with my favorite zoas on the island portion (left side) of the rockscape and on the longer portion of the scape will be all the sticks I have been wanting to grow!

Up and running for about six weeks, minor algae on the rock work and the glass grows algae like crazy. I setup a simple refugium, running opposite the lights. I am hoping for a myriad of benefits from the fuge. Including reduction of nuisance algae, balancing pH swings and a great propagation zone for pods.

Can you all join me in telling him he needs to put up a wall to frame all of his tanks in a line???

I wanted to reduce evaporation and splash/mist from my sump (was getting major salt creep and ran into an issue with my electrical). So I cut up some acrylic I had lying around. First sheet came out great, second sheet I wanted to do to much with and forced it a bit leading to some cracks but it's still effective! So far it's been working out great!

Looking good! It's going to be awesome when those frags grow in, but it's going to be a bit like keeping the Crown Jewels locked away in a cabinet in the London Museum's basement . . . Something that beautiful should be where people can see it! (~_^)

Starting to see some growth. I am so excited to pick up some of my list at FFM! I added a ReefKeeper Lite. Started my wire organizing but still have a ways to go(big shout out to @diablo243 for the help!). I have been doing a bit of testing so I can startup with dosing. I want to ramp up my sps growth.
