this is the PSU tank

sure lol... well the filtration consists of about 200 lbs of live rock in the sump/refugium and a skimmer. The refugium is kept under actinics but yet some unidentifiable algae can still grow. The skimmer is MASSIVE! its a 6 foot high custom made one... and it sure pulls some stuff out!

we also maintain a high level of ORP to handle that high bioload... usually around 450-500.

The Ca reactor on the tank is massive lol but it really has to be to handle how much the corals grow

we run a kalk reactor also, along with a phosban reactor

 

wow, thats a cool tank

 

That was just published this week so it will be a whole month until the next one comes out
I can assure you that the wait is well worth it because the back room there is really nice

 

Please keep us up to date!!!!!

 

Will do! But they didnt mention the lighting...
It is 4 400w ushio 14k bulbs With lumenbrite reflectors, 4" off the water surface

 

not to shabby looking good

 

I've seen it in person several when visiting friends. However, it's kind of deceiving advertising. In the brochures and such, they always mention an aquarium on campus. Myself and my friends just thought they meant a public aquarium with lots of different exhibits. So we walked around searching for a while. Finally, one day they spoke with somebody and we realized that was the aquarium. It's really cool with all different types of livestock and corals.

 

Dam I miss that place I took oceanography up there and we got a tour of the backroom it was pretty cool. but If I'm ever up there again I might have to try and find you and get the special tour haha

 

if your coming up for any football games this coming semester, ill hook you up with a behind the scenes and stuff

 

i'll definitely be up I have alot of friends still there. I was a frat boy, phi delt next to IST but then it became TDP and we moved houses. And one of my best buds was captain of the cheer team so I know alot of cheerleaders too.
