I use bulk Reef supply rox carbon in draw string filter bags in both foam cut outs.

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!!

@Mark75 have you done anything to improve flow, etc?

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?
