I'm amazed by your tank, the vision and the effort that it took create and build such a system. I have so many questions. But my first burning question that I don't think I saw answered, is how many fish do you have in your system now?

Can you elaborate on the reef environment exactlyBeen experimenting with H2O2 lately:

A single, 30 min 150 ppm H2O2 bath is looking very promising.
And dosing 1-2 ml of 3% H2O2 per 10 gallons every 12 hours for 30 days in a reef environment.

Humblefish. Whats the protocol to treating in display tank. I saw you left me that info but wasnt sure who has been doing it and what to look for
Thankyou. I have advantage of no live coral. So follow instructions for fowlr?? Any change to carbon or skimmer ?? I assume no.We've successfully tested 1 ml per 10 gallons of 3% H2O2 in a reef environment. Redose every 12 hours for 30 days. That has successfully eliminated velvet & uronema.
So far, SPS corals seem to be tolerating a higher dosage (1 ml per 8 gallons) as well.
I am currently working with a public aquarium to establish that 1 ml per 5 gallons is safe to administer in a FOWLR environment. (I'm confident that it is.)
Cannot stress how important it is to redose exactly every 12 hours. The peroxide will also last longer in the water if lights are off, so try to time dosage around your light schedule as much as possible. I.E. Dose #1 should occur at least 2 hours before lights come on; Dose #2 should occur shortly after lights are switched off. Therefore, it is best to only run lights for 8-10 hours per day when dosing H2O2.

or effect on biological filter. ? What are symptoms if things go wrong ??Thankyou. I have advantage of no live coral. So follow instructions for fowlr?? Any change to carbon or skimmer ?? I assume no.
Also given the size of tank can i shrink dose for stronger solutionor effect on biological filter. ? What are symptoms if things go wrong ??
No.Know out of left field but do you feed live blackworms?
@Hedgedrew I lost my 180 in that same blackout here in Michigan. Same here. Generator is an essential piece of equipment. Appreciate you taking the time to provide all this info on your systems.I lost a whole tank in 2003 ny blackout. Wont do one without it anymore
Might as well build an indoor bass lake or trout pond, at least then you might get a few meals out of itThanks for answering.
Have you ever given any thought to a large cichlid tank, like your saltwater monstrosity? It would be neat to authentically recreate their habitat on a giant scale.
I can’t wait to share your tank pictures with my students when we go back on Monday. This is the perfect example of hard work and dedication.
Anyway, thanks for sharing!

Me neither !!awesome tank, I couldn't imagine the cost of that let alone making it a full on reef!
Thank you LowellNo words...except well done! And I love Acrylic tanks...there I said it!
Great tank, thanks for sharing it! Given that this is pretty industrial size with automation etc, have you come across any tech or routines or systems that would be applicable on a scaled down dream tank?
