My 72 Mixed Reef (She's Coming Down)

Looks like it was never touched. That brain is stunning.

No one would ever know you just moved that tank. It's really beautiful.

 

Thank You very much!

Having a pro help me bag and pack everything, along with keeping my rocks submerged and using fresh real live sand was definitely the key.

Bacteria were always present!

 

Again, wow! Nothing looks ever touched, your tank looks even way better! GREAT job!

So you're using the same return pump and everything, correct? How much GPH pushing after the head loss if you dont mind me asking?

 

amazing! what fish are in there?

 

The pump is overkill, and I have it throttled way back. When I bought it hadn't made the distinction between DT, Sump/Fuge, Total system turn over, so I bought a 1500 gph pump, silly move. And then I read some reefing articles and the light came on.

With my current sump/fuge design I'm going for a 3x per/hr through the sump. In the DT are a pair of Korallia 3's (1700 gph) in a 72 that is a big turn over!

When I replace my current pump I plan on going to Eheim 1250 of around 317 gph.

 

1 Purple Dottyback, 1 Bicolor Blenny, 1 Prawn Goby.

I gave away the others as not to overload a fresh system after the move.

I'm finally over the clown fish/anemone craze. Glad I got that out of my system! Recently read about how wild clown and anemone populations got rocked after that "movie which will not be mentioned". I never go that route again.

Probably gonna add a halichoeres wrasse in a few months.

 

cool;D you mean Finding Nemo right?

 

Yea, but having typed that brings google searches here. And then people start thinking about a themed saltwater tank from the movie. Which can't be done unless it's really big. Which probaly causes a lot of fish to die in the hands of noobs. So that's why I didn't type it.

 

Tank looks great Whisky Tango

and thats one very stunning Wellso you have on the right hand size
