Arnold's 120 Gallon Tank - added tank progression shots and video from over the years

Arnold your reef is beautiful. Obviously you are an experienced reef keeper. I have trouble with the no skimmer thing though, and I am trying to understand. Do you still keep no skimmer?
Do you have hair algae blooms? Many fish feeding alot or few fish with little feeding?

 

[Apon]

yep still no skimmer, I get algae on the glass, but that is about it. Go check out the SF tank tour thread for more pics.

 

[Apon]

oh and I have like 34 fish in there too.

I guess I should post some current pics from the tour folks took.

Gusty pics.

Yup one of my favorite San Francisco tanks, well except for those frag racks in the tank , but the fact there's no skimmer on it just leaves me baffled.

update - not much updates since I started a new job 7 months ago. I did lose 2 clams due to corals actually smothering them! I just didn't notice. Also lots of aptasia popping up so I have to take care of those. I will try to post a new pic soon, but I did setup a new 7 gallon tank at work with extra coral from home. : )

Are those bi-color torches on the left or hammers? Looking sweet!

I like that clown hosting the nems in the back. My clown only hosts at night.

 

[JAR]

how has LED conversion worked for you? the tank looks great!

Those are bicolor torches, but I have the hammers as well

Hey JAR,

So far so good, thinking about changing to controllable ones sometime. Been 2 years on those RAPID LED now.

Nice to see your tank is doing well, Arnold.

OK I have not updated my tank thread in a long time, so lets try a crappy phone video. Galaxy S7 (lowest resolution). next time I will go higher.
