Hello everyone! This is my 75 gallon mixed reef tank, the system is about 10 months old. I'm working as a pizza delivery driver right now so this tank is REALLY on a budget. This is a 75g aqueon tank with built in overflow, the water drops down into a 20g long open sump where I have chemi-pure elite, a 200w heater, bubble magus nac7 skimmer that I just picked up with a new pump and bubble plate for $135, returned by an eco633 pump (596 gph), passes through dual lockline, and added flow is a vortech mp-10 and koralia 750. I also just added an upflow algae scrubber that I made about 7 days ago, it's already covered in algae but I wouldn't really call it filtration quite yet. Lighting is 2 Kessil a150w Ocean blue (15k) LED pendants, 32w each.
