    Probably not. We'll see. I do like a mixed reef though.

    custom 90 gallon

    Ya the skimmer is too big. I'm leaning towards the Reef Octopus Elite 150INT. I would love a tang, but I can't have any of my favorites ( Fowleri, Powder blue, and Chevron).

    custom 90 gallon

    Thank you. The tank is a custom Truvu acrylic tank. It is made of 1/2 inch acrylic all the way around so that it never bows. My old tank bowed and I hated it. The stand was purchased from Aquatic Collections where they got it made for me. It stands at a total of 40 inches tall, but the tank sits...

    custom 90 gallon

    Thanks guys. My sump was made by Tap Plastics and is just a big cube under my tank. I am getting a 14x14x14 inch acrylic cube made for a gravity fed refugium so that the little critters can just fall into the tank as live food instead of going through the pumps. As for the skimmer I can fit my...

    custom 90 gallon

    I used to have a 240 gallon reef about 7 years ago and I had the 2 ati power modules over the tank and that beast of a tank was bulletproof. The lights are awesome and the corals loved the light. I still have the system, but my parents are using it as a cactus tank. Its hilarious, but it works...

    custom 90 gallon

    So after taking a few years off because of moving and buying a house I am finally going to use my custom 90 gallon (3ft long, 2 ft deep, 2ft tall). Using my ATI LED power module for lighting (4x39 watt T5 and 2x75 watt LED pucks). Ehiem pumps for returns to my ADA Lily pipes (I was using the 90...

    Help!!!! What's eating this?

    Is that a chocolate mimic tang in your tank? I am only asking as I had one go nuts on some LPS in my 240 gallon. Once it got a taste for coral it was over. It ate an open brain, elegance coral and was getting a taste for favias. Also had problems with coral beauties and yellow foxface. If you do...

    fish ID

    So I picked up a new dart fish from a LFS and it was labeled only as a dart fish. I will take pics of it tomorrow. So it looks like a Ptereleotris gram mica / Lined dart grammica but instead of the yellow horizontal lines it has yellow bars with a blue eye and some horizontal blue lines on the...

    check out my new Rhizo coral.

    Thanks. It's been a while since I've had it. Pretty much looks the same. We believe that those were not baby dendro but baby rhizos since they are growing directly on the rhizo skeleton and are getting a little bigger will try to take a up close pic so everyone can judge for themselves. Would be...
