Hello everyone,
this is my first reef aquarium, it is running for 18 months, but most of the SPS frags were put in after a year. In February i changed the lights from 3 x 130w Maxspect R420R to t5.
Size 120 x 55 x 55 cm, for lighting I use PacificSun Althea 8x39w T5 fixture, lights turn on at 9 a.m. and turn off at 22 p.m. For flow I use Jebao pumps 2 x CP-40 + 2 x RW-8 and DCP-4000 for the return. Skimmer is a Pacific Sun IS-Crux 200 with Airstar 1500 DC pump, pacific sun reactor with Brightwell Extraxphos and an algae scrubber....... There is also 50w grow led light in the sump for chaetomorpha algae growth with Marinepure sphere media. RO water top off is also Pacific Sun smart ATO. I dose balling chemicals with Coral Box Wifi dosing pump, 100 ml of each solution per day.
I use Reef Crystals salt, once a week i dose 30 ml Brightwell Microbacter7.
Still plan to add some fish and corals so it is not completely stocked yet (doubt it will ever be )
I hope you like it
And shout out to my good friend and reef mentor Mikhail Petrov for helping me with everything
