    I got the Reef Octopus Extreme 200 for Christmas. OMG it kicks a*#! I really should have posted on it sooner but I wanted to give it some time. I didn't need this much time since it showed me a HUGE :eek: difference in my tank soon after it got broke in. I know it seems overkill on my 75g but I have a Clown Tang that is growing with leaps and bounds, a sailfin tang and a Bristletooth Tomini Tang. I am also getting my first sps this week (maybe 2 ;) ).

    Nice Christmas Gift. I also have a clown tang about 6 inches he's a real messy fish. I like him but I think I want him out of my DT. The bio load is too high.
    But of course, we need pics;D

    They due require very clean water. The way I have all my rock he can swim all a round the tank (complete circle). I want to keep him until he just can't fit anymore. I'll post pics tonight of everything.

    I have that skimmer too and love it! Everyone once in awhile though the skimmer pump will make a load whirring sound, not sure what is up with that, but i did add the mesh to the needle wheel so maybe its rubbing on that
