    It was a transfer from a 90 and already cycled live rock added with all new live sand. Hard corals are growing with awesome coloration unbelieveably fast. I have a atb 1050a skimmer with a litermeter 3 replacing all evaporated water with kalkwasser and two pumps doing 3 gallon automatic water changes everyday. Calcium stays at 420, alk is 8.3 mag is 1350, no nitrates and no phosphates.

    I'm highly envious. That tank looks very very clean.

    Think you could get a shot of the plumbing and stand? Sounds like it's almost as intense as the tank :)

    The 3 1/4 water lines that carry the kalkwasser, fresh saltwater and tank water to the utility sink is all ran thru the walls and ceiling into the laundry room. Ran all that when i remodeled the basement.
