Hey ya'll. I've been a member since February but this is the first thread I have posted. I'm more of a listener than a talker or should i say reader than a writer, as I don't have the experience to be giving accurate information in most cases...yet. I have been into reef tanks for 2 years now and I love to read about anything and everything reef related. In fact I hated to read period until I got into reefing and I have read more in the last 2 years than I have ever read in my life!
So a little bit on my current setup(s). I started with a biocube which only lasted about 6 months before i wanted something larger and now I have a 90 gallon with 20 gallon sump and a 60 cube (my wife's tank that I kind of took over).
90 gallon is 20"x 18"x 60" mixed reef
I'm running 2 radion pros w/wide angle lens and just recently added 2 x 54w t5s with ati blue+.
I'm currently only running a curve 7 skimmer and refugium with marine pure and live rock in sump. I recently took gfo and carbon offline as I had not been able to get any detectable nitrate and phosphates.
Flow- I am using a wp-40, wp 25 and pp 8 on else mode.
3 part dosing with brs dosers
Alk- 7.8
Ca- 420
Mag- 1440
No3- undetectable using nyos and red sea
Po4- 0.00 using Hannah checker
60 gallon cube 24x24x24
Originally just an anemone tank and is now a mixed reef.
(1) radion xr30 gen3
Reef octopus coralVue skimmer
(1) wp25 on w1
Refugium and live rock in sump
Kalk in ato
Alk- 7
Ca- 400
Mg- 1400
Thanks for looking and I look forward to becoming more involved with the forum.
