I have a 75g tank I have one snowflake moray a small scopas tang ( until I get my 240 running) three turbos and a coral banded shrimp. Its FOWLR for right now I have a tom rapids pro filter with the protein skimmer. This is my first tank in probably 10 years or so. And I'm glad I got back into the hobby.

Here are a few pictures I took just before work. The tank has been up for about a month and a half.

Thank you guys means a lot coming from experienced people in this hobby. I do have a quick question. So im using a tom rapids pro filter (wet/ dry) and my question is in the top container that holds my filter floss i was wondering if it would be effective to put some
PhosGuard inside a media bag and place that in between my layers of filter floss. or if the water movement would be to fast around the PhosGuard.

It would depend on the amount of flow running through it. You don't want too much flow through the Phosguard that it begins to grind itself away. I actually run Phosguard myself but in a reactor with just enough flow to barely tumble it.

Just my opinion.
