Thank you all.
I will try to write a list shortly, but basically just most germany products and US Apex.

Here is my latest FTS...

Just an amazing Reef Tank! I'm getting back into the game,after many years of taking time off!
R2R is a great source of information, since I last had a Reef Tank!
I'm looking to get the new Red Sea XXL 650ml tank! I'm hoping that I'm making the right decision to get back in!

[shih87]

Congrat.. beautiful pictures by the way.
So do you still use the Zeolite rocks in the zeovit reactor and pump them few times a day to release the mums?

I did use Zeolite rocks but proablaly only pump them once or twice a week. Guilty...

RedSea tank design is very cool, especial how they integrated everything together. IMHO...You may need to think what you want to have and evaluate their light meet your needs or not. I did not study enough here.

Haha. I am sure still lots of places to improve.

Thanks.

I used home made solution. Alkalinity solution is made by baking soda, and Ca solution is made by CaCl2. Hope this explain well.

Yes, instating saying "pumping", it actually is "shaking". I shake only less than a minutes. Key is seeing milky thing to main tank. I can't see big difference between shaking daily and shaking one or twice a week, so I later giving up on shake daily. My NO3/PO4 is very steady at 0.2/0.01 ppm.
I do, however, change 2/3 material once every 45 to 60 days.

amazing tank all around! I love the dosing set-up and the electric light lifter. I'm entering a job where I'll have to travel 4 days a week so I may be stealing a few of your ideas.

Sure. I also learned from other reefer's idea sharing a lot. Here suppose a sharing community and best wish to your tank.

My FTS with entire system and some background as below

Some old brown coral frags and colonies perform better now. I am not sure because Af products or just about time. Maybe both!? What you guys think it is? Please share your thought.

 

[Clayton Jessup]

The tank looks beautiful. Think the AF products are doing you very well in your system [emoji12]
