Hello all!
So, after a year of learning and trying, I'm finally confident enough to share my tank on R2R
In July last year I started my current tank, with live rock and natural seawater. Currently I'm using a mixture of the Balling Classic method with added trace elements and a 15% water change each month. For now this gives me a optimal mixture between stability and replenishing the water regularly. For technique, I'm using the following equipment:
Tank: 138cm x 64cm x 50cm see-through tank (approx. 450L incl. sump)
Skimmer: Deltec SC 1455 skimmer
Pumps: Jebao DCT-8000 (8.000 L/h) return and 2x Jebao RW-15 (15.000 L/h)
Lighting: 2x54W ATI T5 | 2x Maxspect Razor 120W 10.000K | 2x54W ATI T5
I try to keep a mixed reef, whereas I really like LPS corals for their ever-changing appearance, but I'm also fond of special acropora and other SPS species with their brilliant coloring.
I'll post a picture and video of my tank below in this first post, if you have any questions or useful tips please feel free to comment! I'll try to update this thread regularly with pictures and developments.
