    So after a year of having the custom built acrylic 40 gal breeder and the few issues that went along with it that drove me bananas I have upgraded to a
    84gal 6' long tank at twice the water volume.

    Tank specks

    84 long fujimoto
    300 gph eshopps overflow
    4x80 watt tek retro fit in the canopy
    Apex jr
    3 x 8" fans for cooling (controlled by my apex jr)
    autotopoff.com top off
    1 x20 gal rubbermaid container for refuge with 5" special kitty cat litter and 1" sand. Few different macros and 2 clip on lights. (ran by apex)
    1 x 20 gal Rubbermaid container for sump.
    Return flow is a Catalina 4000 1400gph pump turned down that will run my 2 reators as well
    2 x tlf 150 phosban reactors for gfo and carbon
    Skimmer is Super Reef Octopus SRO 2000 int W/bubble blaster
    Flow is jbj ocean streams 1600s

    More pics to come

    Thanks Corailline,
    Lots more room :)
    I had him for about 6weeks now I have been feeding him mussels from the local
    Store...that's all he will eat But he has helped him to my gold drop clam though imjust found out.... so I'm going to have to remove when I get back Home ( out of town on business )
    Sucks because hes such a beautiful fish.
