    Nice set up! Are you running a skimmer?

    I enjoyed the video, looks like a lot of thought and work went into the set up. Great fuge with the DSB and chaeto. What direction are you thinking of taking the tank corals wise? Oh yea your fish and shrimp big time beggers. ;D

    No skimmer, and for corals I want to try sps now, so I'll start with birdsnest.

    I am curious what your nitrates and phosphates are sitting at with that DSB and all the chaeto.

    It will make a great sps tank. Try some monti and pocillopora if you get the opportunity since they are nice easy sps.

    Very nice, I like how you used different types of rock. I love your cleaner shrimp too, they are my favorite.:)

    I didn't see a skimmer in the vid, but I had to ask since the system looks so clean and healthy. Looking that good without a skimmer makes the set up even more impressive :).
