Still really like the tank? Picked up one for my son for Christmas. Any recommendations/thoughts looking back on your setup? Thanks!

Ahem! Bought it for your son, or used your son as a pawn to further your own reef addiction? Time to come clean, Brian [emoji14]

Would love to see an update on this tank! Any new recommendations or anything you have upgraded?

Zoas, GSP, and a Ricordea are all doing really well in Houston's.

Thanks!!

Sorry for the delay,...yes we added an RW2,..and yes they do make an RW2 power head just a little harder the find them the larger sizes,..it is the perfect size for this tank. We also removed the stock hood/light and installed a Reef Breeders light and that made a huge improvement in how the tank looks but also incouraged a Dino bloom we are currently battling.

Awesome. Could you post any pics of light and RW2? Is RW2 a brand? What coral/livestock do you have in tank now?
