Very cool - congrats & keep up the great work! If you don't mind, please share: age of tank, flow, lighting, water parameters, maintenance upkeep, etc? Love to see what you're doing to have such a spectacular & thriving tank...

Tank has been up and running 3yrs+. Lighting with an ATI 8x80w fixture with two reefbrite xho’s. 2 gyre xf250’s. 2 jebao pp20 powerheads, dcp 15000 return pump. Alk8.2-8.5. Ph8.1- 8.3. Po4.05. Nitrate 10ish. Almost no w/c. Supplement major and minor trace elements. Clean gravel bed once a month. Take 10 gals out for that and that’s my W/C. Run an aquamax ctech t-2 calcium reactor and supplement with jebao do-4 dosing pump with BRS alk and calcium to keep levels constant

Hurricane Ian did a number on tank last year but it’s coming back. Generator is a must for any reef tank.

Bummer - let’s hope Mother Nature will be kind going forward. Agreed - I have a battery backup for the wavemaker + generator. In fact, we had a few 30min+ brownouts several days ago and I felt very secured that my tank will be fine.
