    Being new around here, figured I would start a tank thread.

    I have recently downsized from a 68G Breeder to a 50B.

    No sump, but will be adding a small auto top off tank under the stand in its place.

    Replace the PS-400 Needle Wheel Protein Skimmer by AquaEuro USA* - AquaCave skimmer with a HOB Bubble Magus HOB Skimmer BM-NAC5E [BM-NAC5E] - $114.00 : Affordable Aquatic Supplies LLC


    Running bio pellets in a 2 little fishies reactor.

    Vortech mp-10 and 2 korillia Evo 1050's for flow

    I have a 6 bulb tek fixture w. 12 blue 3w Led's for extra par/supplimentation.

    Have a breeding pair of mollies and a yellow coris wrasse for fish. Not buying anything crazy just yet, moving the tank very soon. Looking forward to stocking the tank with some really nice wrasse.

    Planning on child proofing all the electric and additives under the tank, in my custom built "Baby proof" stand, in place of the sump, that took up all the room.

    Going to focus on a zoa garden, along with a couple SPS that I cant get myself to get rid of, and a few choice LPS that really catch my eye. I really want to get back to collecting different types of Blasto Wellsi also.

    That looks like an amazing setup. Your FTS's look awesome and so clear. A lot of nice colors as well. How long have you had the 68 breeder set up?
