My predator reef

[Bay]

Hey guys,
My first post and I'd like to introduce my tank. It's a 12 foot long 350 gallon mostly SPS tank. My favorite thing in here is my blue spotted stingray and my sharks. Enjoy!

Welcome.

Awesome tank, all the open real estate on the sand bed seems perfect for your fish choices.

Thanks guys, I use bio pellets for nitrates and lanthanum chloride for phosphates. I skim wet and empty everything in the front yard using one of those dosing pumps. I don't do water changes or any filter media just siphon out detritus/phosphate precipitate from the sump once or twice a month. I add salt and check my levels once a week.

Very cool Tank.
Did you consider a sand filter for those messy eaters?

They aren't that bad, I don't even use any filter media. I usually feed the predators and all the wrasses have to scramble if they want to eat. I'm a firm believer in Lanthanum because I could never successfully grow Acros until I switched from GFO.

What are the dimensions of the tank LxWxH
I see you said it was 12' long and 350 gallons
Seems like it would be way more water than that

Very nice tank and excellent fish choices. The blue spot is by far my favorite.
More info please !
Thanks for sharing and welcome to R2R
