Nice 40!!

Thanks! I'll be getting a nice camera in a few weeks and can't wait to get better shots. White balance is a ruined for iPhones. My pearl berry and zombie planet (red planet was dead and buried for over a year and came back to life!). isn't done justice.

Thanks! They are our favorites. I hand feed them them and the angler will come up on my hand for his food

These are my black suns that I lost all but one tiny polyp during a long battle of Dino's in my 180. Took a while but....

I've had this chalice since it was a small frag.

beautiful tanks...the angler is insane!

What lighting you using on the 40? Any special run filtration that you can think of such as pellets? The coral look great and is why i'm asking.

Thanks for sharing!

Thankyou!
My lighting is a 6bulb tek with 5 ati bl plus and 1 uvl 12k and a led tube all blue.
I run a Cskim 1800 in a 30 API sump no fuge and 2 bags chemi pure elite in a reactor in the return well. I don't dose anything other than 1 tbs of alk a week in my makeup res. 5 gal wc's once a week using instant ocean and jack the cal up to 500.
I have a closed loop drilled in the middle with returns on each end and 2 jbls with a controller.
I feed my corals oysterfeast and reef roids twice a month(amazing stuff!!!)and spot feed mysis to my Lps opposite weeks
I keep it real simple and it works

My levels are stable at
Cal 500
Mag 1500
Alk 8
Ph 8.3
Sal .026
