My tank after 17 months
I thought I would post an updated picture. The tank is full and I'm starting to place some of the SPS on the sandbed
 I thought it would take longer to fill.How am I going to convince my wife I need a larger tank? Think, think, think.... Regards, Kevin

Kevin,
That tank keeps getting better and better looking each time I see it ... I am enjoying watching your progress on it  How's that sump working out for you? |

Thanks all
Chuck, The sump is great. It makes the perfect place to acclimate those delicate fish and get them eating. I have a P. ventralis in there now. Here is a recent picture. The coraline has gone crazy. Regards, Kevin

Looks great Kevin ... I am liking how your tank is coming along. I remember you mentioning that the large colony you sold to Eric didn't make it, that's too bad ... any reason why???

Chuck,
The LFS guys were leaving for Seattle at 5 AM so I took the coral in the night before in a 200 gal salt bucket. They got to Eric's about noon the next day. I think this was too long for such a large coral in that volume of water (it was the size of a volleyball). I have 2 small frags I kept but it will be at least a couple of years before they get to that size again .Regards, Kevin

Great pictures and a gorgeous tank!
What type of skimmer are you running?

Mangrove,
I'm using a couple of 2 year old 95W URI 50/50 bulbs. rededteck, My skimmer is a ETTS Gemini 800 powered by a Iwaki MD55RLT. I like it very much, I just wish I would have gotten the Quad 1800 model as I have the tank heavily stocked now. Regards, Kevin
