Some shots of tank first is from beg of aug last is aug 30. Been seeing exciting growth in my corals. On this build went to a ca reactor using a hydor performer 1000 ca reactor been working great and i must say in this tank i have found it to be very stable keeping alk around 9, ca 425-430, mag 1300. My lighting is fromm reef radiance one lumentek 360 pro and one lumentek 240 pro i have to say so far as leds i really like these lights.

This tank is a very mixed reef have sps, lps, softies, nps gorgonian been keeping po4 to around .03-.05 and no3 around 5. Corals are thriving some that i thought were gonners are coming back. Have to say it has not been without its losses had a marroon pair that while attempting to remove them because they were constantly digging and sandstorming tank i wound up with stressed induced ich that just about decimated tank but now have moved through that and am begining to restock i have a pair of orange spotted gobies, 9- wild perculas from a local member, 2- yellow tangs, juv orange shoulder tang, juv mimic lemon peel tang, tri color fairy wrasse, 4- green chromis, yellow eyed kole, bi color fox face, cuc consits of a whole assort of snails, hermits, coral banded shrimp, pair of pepermint shrimp, harlequin shrimp, have plans to maybe add an arrow crab also have 3-4 emerald crabs, forgot to mention at first added 5 nems of which appears i have a split or two now have 7 nems 2- tahatian reef nems, purple tip condi, bubble nem, rose bubble tip nems.

Well havent updated in a while tank was doing very well until i had to move. I moved to a amaller place and was forced to sell most of the sps and quite a bit of the equip the place i moved into wasnt big enough for the tank so it had to go after selling what i could i transferred what was left into one of my spare tanks. Got through my move on the first weekend of dec and here is some shots of my 90 mostly lps/softie. The cabs to the leftbof the tank house my apex and ato the apex sys is in the upper and ato is in lower. Eventually to the left of the cabs i am going to put in a 55 hex as a fowlr which will be plumbed into existing sys
