65 Gallon Reef

[reef4beer]

So after loving my nano tanks I found the right one for me.

Came up on a super deal on a 65 gallon tank with stand, canopy, power compacts, wet dry, auto top off, protein skimmer, and a 1/4 HP chiller.


The tank has been running since 07' and consisted of a large orange stripe bristletooth tang, lemark angel, and some other fish that I took into work to sell.


I plan of adding AI Vegas on it which will be supplemented with a 2 bulb 39w fixture (already put on tank)


Current livestock includes a orange stripe bristletooth tang, rock blenny, male spotted mandarin, yellow corris, and two percula's.

Currently took a loss on a couple of fish due to ich and tangs aggressiveness.


Here are some pics.
