Hello one and all!
Soo a friend convinced me to finally post my tank on this site. Dunno what I waited for, especially after perusing the site for awhile. Anyway I've had this tank going for years, filled it out a couple/three times and just restarted with new rocks and fewer fragments. About the third rescape my overflow started failing me on a regular basis. After about the fifth flooding I just turned the sump off determined to replace the overflow on my next paycheck. As the week wore on I realized I got to likeing the quietness of a lack of a sump (seriously turn off your sump/equipment and then go get some food. You'll be amazed when you come home). It was at this point I decided to just rip the thing out and see how I did without it. I haven't looked back since.
Before I go on I should mention THIS SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTED BY BEGINNERS!!!
Equipment List:
Aquaclear 130
Ebo Jager 150W
150W Viper Halide
2x39W T5HO Actintic
Maintenance Routine:
Water Changes: 20% every other week
Dosing: Ca and Alk regularly... nothing else
Livestock: (This is the secret)
Fish: Yellowtail Blenny, Sixline Wrasse
Filtration: Umm Calupera?
That's it! On to the pics!
Go ahead, Hate away:boom:
