Hey friends,
I recently took advantage of petco's tank sale and pickef up a 40 breeder. I've wanted one for a long time. Love the dimensions. No idea why I didn't get one sooner. All the livestock was transfered over from a larger, established tank. For most of the last year, my tank was a 68 gallon half moon by aquavim. I absolutely hated owning it. It was super uncomfortable to work on and suffered some neglect as a result.
I'm using a petco metal stand for the tank. I built a PVC overflow and am running a skimz up22 sump with a reef octopus skimmer and a jebao dc return pump. Flow is handled by an oversized jebao wavemaker that I plan on swapping with something more appropriately sized. Lights are three AI Prime HDs. Love these lights.
Lots of flower nems and lps in the tank. Thems my faves. Also a white spot puffer, red firefish, orchid dottyback, and a pair of yellow clown gobies. Planning on adding some red stoplight cardinals. Really pleased with the tank as it is, but looking forward to things growing out.
Anyway, enjoy. More to come later.
