I thought I'd start a thread here. Been having fun with my new RSM 250. It's an oldie but a goodie.

Friend was off loading a bunch of frags and corals and hooked me up. I'm going to need to post a bunch of pics in the ID forum area to figure out what all I have.

Currently have:
Tunze 9004 DC (hard time finding a compatible skimmer for the 3.5 inch footprint limitation on this tank.)

Echotech MP10
Koralia evolution power head
JBJ ATO
Red Sea coral pro salt @1.025 sg
Two return pumps @640gpg and @320
6 T5 HO: 3 actinic, 2 white, 1 pink

Some current pictures of my tank. Added a carbon reactor and the xport bio, PO4, and NO3 seem to all be doing their job. Nuisance algae is dieing off and corraline is starting to spread.

Finally upgraded to a 187 custom tank.
