    Its all free stacked... trying to decide on making a foam rock wall, or some arches with mortar or acrylic rod. I really like it how it is and so does the owner, so thats an option also.

    The goby in the bottom tank is eating sinking pellets, the urchin is mowing algae and eating nori as a supplement.

    Re: Custom Install, 400 gal system volume

    Sorry for the delayed update... Things had to be put on the back burner for a few months, and are finally starting to get back going.









    Fish list off the top of my head

    Royal grama
    2 Tennenti tangs
    M/F pair of blue jaw triggers
    2 yellow tangs
    2 sailfin tangs
    lemonpeel angel
    Queen angel juvy
    and a M/F pair of naso tangs in QT still.

    Tank is running great so far, and can start focusing on cleaning things up and hiding cords as soon as the calcium reactor is online and the last bit of plumbing is done.







    Lighting is in the works right now, so expect pictures of that soon.

    Thanks! Yeah... for some reason every week or so theres this 1/2" thick layer of mud in the skimmer, cant figure out where its coming form or why its there

    Honestly though, its really doing a great job and i am pretty impressed with how the tank is running so far.

    Looks great, I look forward to seeing a few more pictures of the triggers! I miss my creep tank.

    Keep up the good work!

    Re: Custom Install, 400 gal system volume

    Sorry for the lack of updates, The tank has been "Idle" for the last few months due to personal problems and an ICH outbreak which killed most of the fish. Everything is clearing up now, and the project is getting rolling again so expect some update pictures.

    Just ordered a 72" (6array) AquaIllumination SOL fixture and all the goodies to control it with the RKE. A chiller will be arriving shortly in prep for summer, A skimmer for the QT tank, and other basics like salt, filter socks, etc.

    Getting the NET up and running the MYreef software on his computer, calcium reactor and other things going next time I head up.
