Ricky's 120 Gallon Mixed Reef

LoL, yeah it's spicy.

 

LOL!!! No matter how ya put it, it looks awesome and so does your tank...

 

Updates!

Since my last post I got a steal on an Eightline Fairy Wrasse, the LFS had it mislabeled as a Carpenter's Wrasse but from the pics you'll see it looks nothing like it. I got it for $34.99! it sells for $129.99 on Live Aquaria and Vivid Aquariums.

Full Tank Shot from last weekend



I noticed my Orange Cap was dying off almost like something cut pieces off from it every morning. I decided to stay up one night and see if anything was eating it. Sure enough something was.






I got my tweezers and stabbed the crab through the face, that ended that problem.

I ordered new Phoenix bulbs today that should be here next week. My corals are doing great and recovering fast from the RTN event.

 

Great progress and good hunting!

 

Congrats!!! Awesome Pics!!!!! All bow to the crab slayer.....LOL

 

btw Ricky, i am basing your tank as my model, getting a 120g with almost the same set up as ur, do u think that mag12 return pump suitable for the tank? is it too hot in the summer?

 

Great tank!! I have a 75 gallon and would love to have it looking like yours. But I'm taking it slowly. What an inspiration!!

 

By the way, how do you get such clear pictures of your tank, I have a digi camera but mine never turn out that good, any secrets?

 

hey Ricky can u PM me with all the equipments that you use? thanks

 

The Mag Drive 12 works fine for my tank. I have not had a problem with it heating up my tank. It also is very quiet, after a year if may be noisy but I replaced the impeller and now it is whisper quiet.
