Dan's 150 Rebuild

[Sobo's Reef]

Not really a fan of bristletooths actually. I'm really hooked on this Naso for whatever reason lol

 

[Cdiggy]

Man those tangs do get big. I would love to have them but there is no way I could deal with how big they get and the bio load on the tank. Maybe an indoor swimming pool would work.

 

[Sobo's Reef]

Lmao Doug, that would be an awesome tank lol

 

[jgraz]

I would go with the naso (since your stuck on it), the two wrasses' and the anthias. Skip the Achilles and the female blue throat. All she brings to the game is a more blue throat on the male.

 

[Sobo's Reef]

Yeah but that's why I want her! Lol ugh I dunno what I'm gonna do yet, I'm torn

Depending on how much money I get from my corals, maybe I'll get a better skimmer since I'm still using the reef octopus nwb150

 

[ecam]

I was just going to say that. U can push the limits with bio load. But u have to have strong filtration. I have an Sro 5000 rated for 400 gallons and starting to run pellets again to control nitrates

 

[Sobo's Reef]

Can u recommend one suitable for my tank that's not insanely expensive?

 

[asonitez]

I got a skims sm201 monster

Dan I got a SWC 230 cone. It is pulling insane stuff out of my current setup. I got it from a company called reef filtration.

In a 120 I have a desjardini and a yellow belly hippo, I have always had a pair of tangs but one was always a hippo. The other either a naso or desjardini, and I have to say I have loved both those two. Hippo's are pansies.
2 clowns, orchid pseudochromis and his pal a starry blenny go figure, pair of orange stripe cardinal fish(which ironically were at AO for 9 months in his tank and the moment I put them in the 120 they hated each other.

 

[Sobo's Reef]

Lol that's bad luck, so if I were to get a bigger skimmer, would my stocklist become a little better?

 

[Sobo's Reef]

I'm looking at the Skimz sm161 Monster. Rated for 133-300g for $350. That fits my budget a lil bit more. I was trying to get some reviews on it but there aren't many. Asonitez, are the pumps loud at all?

And if I act before tomorrow at midnight I can get 10% off with free shipping... Hmmmm
