Hello everyone!

Since I might be posting here and there :angel: I thought it would be helpful to get some info up about my set-ups.

First, we have the 65g SPS Tank! (This FTS is a little dated, I'll get a new one soon)

The display is 36" x 18" x 24". Sump is a 20g long. I'm redoing the sump in the near future, so I won't bore you all with the details on that quite yet.

Equipment:
Sunlight Supply Maristar (2x250 MH 2x39 T5) and hubby-rigged LED Royal Blue moonlights, adhered "elegantly" onto the glass :xd:
Super Reef Octopus 1000INT
Vortech MP40
EcoPlus return pump
Eheim Jager Heater - 250w
and of course RO/DI, refractometer, test kits, and digital thermometer, etc.

Latest params:
Alk: 8.5
Cal:450
Mag: 1350
SG: 1.025
Temp: 80 (ish)
NH3, NO2, NO3- 0
PO4- 0

Fish:
Trio Flame Wrasse
Pair Misbar Ocellaris
Black Leopard Wrasse
Yellow Assessor

CUC:
20ish hermits
3 nass. snails
1 cerith
3 turbo snails
more snails coming soon

Blue-tip Tenuis
Blue/Green Fuzzy Acropora
Cali Tort
Mint Green Tenius
Hawkins Echinata
Miami Humilis
Pink Lemonade
Red Dragon
Red Planet
Acropora abrotanoides

and a couple "unknowns"

And some pictures:

Thanks for looking... I'll get to the other tank later, getting sleepy

Ok, so on to the next tank...

30 gallon Deep Blue shallow rimless (24" x 24" x 12"), DIY stand
10g sump, 175w MH pendant, Quiet One return pump
2 Aqueon powerheads, hopefully to be replaced with an MP10 at some point
No skimmer at the moment, in the market

Only inhabitants are a hermit crab and my spotted mandarin who just recently was moved from the 65g. He eats prepared foods, and is much happier without the wrasses stealing it all.

Here are some pictures from the stand build (built by the hubby):

And now up and running:
