Acropora Garden in the home office

Sweet!

 

Thanks for the kind words guys.. I need to post a picture of my other reef tank that I have in my basement. It is a 92 gallon corner tank and I think the color of the Acros are better than in this picture. Look for that soon.

 

Awesome tank. You can tell us how you do it if you want .

 

yes indeed, a very beautiful aquarium you have there. i am impressed

 

That's just your "office tank"?! I want to your your other tanks! haha.

That's beautiful.

 

The color can get better?

Yes, we would like to see your other tank. & tell us about this one too.

 

very decent indeed.

very nice looking tank. how about a couple of more shots?

 

Details about the tank... Pretty Much standard.. 90 Gallon Setup with 2 - 250W HQI Metal Halide and 2- 55W Ultra Actinic T5 bulbs. 20K Ushio bulbs. 30 Gallon Refugium for filtration. I do not run a Protein Skimmer and no additives. Regular water changes every 4 weeks. In terms of fish, I have a Yellow Tang, Blue Regal Tang, and a six line wrasse. I found that after about a year, the tank really started to take care of itself. I keep tangs so that I rarely have to feed the fish given I travel a lot for work. I dump a handful of live Graciliara Macro Algae (doesn't rot like dried nori.. : : : : Indo-Pacific Sea Farms : : : :) in the tank for the tangs and the wrasse hunts for food on its own. I seemed to have found a mix of corals that are hardy and accustomed to my tank environment. Since I am in the Chicago area, I get all my Acropora from Exotic Aquatics in Algonquin since they are the only LFS in Chicago that specializes in Acros.
