Nicks 58 Gallon

[svalereef]

Been a while since I posted here. I just upgraded this weekend from a 39 gallon long hex to an Oceanic 58 gallon. The hex was a pain to clean with all the corners and I thought I was going to go with a 40 breeder. Found my new one on CL Sunday morning and made the deal. Had to drive from the south bay to Cotati to pick it up but well worth the price I paid for it.

Here it is.

Tank:
Oceanic 58 gallon
Built-In side overflow
Drain and return drilled on the bottom
Sea Swirl

Sump:
10 gallon
Rio 1700 return pump
EuroReef RS80 Skimmer

Lighting
250 watt MH w/ Hamilton 14K bulb
Powered by Icecap 250W
Two Icecap 660-009 powering 4 VHO bulbs (2 actinic, 1 daylight, 1 blue)
LED Moon lights with lunar controller

Very nice.

You may want to isolate the Kenya tree so that it doesn't take over the tank. Just my 2 cents.

I'm going to pull most of it out. Can't even give this stuff away anymore.

Very nice! Does your black long spine urchin take your frags for a ride?
