Alright well i just moved my tank saturday... everything went exceptionally smooth, and all inhabitants survived and are looking good. Now that im back on here i guess i should start one of these up. Just to warn everyone, i dont really like typing extremely much as i type reports for school all day, so this will be largly picture based. Feel free to ask any questions, give any suggestions, or whatever you like.
Description:
75g Marineland standard glass tank
-Drilled 3x w/ 1.5" bulkheads, 1 for a return in the top center of the tank, loc line split to each side, and two covered by custom made acrylic overflow boxes.
Stand is oversized custom built to house a 40 breeder sump tank as well as a 20H top off tank, (stand is 54"x26" and tank is only 48"x18")
Skimmer is a Reef Octopus NW200 (Such a beast skimmer. i love it.)
Return Mag 18
Lighting-
Tek 8x54w T5 setup
I am currently building my own 22 led Accent bar that i will mount to this. (2 green leds, 2 turquoise, 6 blue, and 12 royal blue.)
LIVESTOCK-
Current Fish list
Yellow Tang
ORA tank bred Target spot mandarin (eats flake)
ORA tank bred Orchid Dottyback
---------------------------
Future additions include
Pair of either Naked clowns, Black ice clowns, or platinum clowns. I havent decided.
Either a yasha goby or a yellow watchman goby
Mystery Wrasse
Corals wise its a mess haha. Like i said. Mixed Madness.
Currently i have somewhere near 20 bubble tips... All sorts of assorted kinds. Lemon Blast, Blood red roses, rainbow, and regular old greens.
I have a couple different types of sps, Millies, Birdsnests, montis, and some others. Most of them recent additions.
I am starting to expand my zoa/paly collecion as well, Now including Armageddons, darth mauls (thanks ray), tubbs blues, magicians, True RPE's, Jokers (thanks ray again), sunflowers, and a bunch of others.
I also have a whole load of ricordea, which i am weeding out now because i am going a different route with the tank, cutting down on the randomness of it all.
Now for the fun part. currently i have no good pictures of the tank after the move. I will throw some up but the will be cell phone pictures so excuse the blurryness or crappyness in general haha.
here are some pre-move shots.
