Thanks guys, the tank has been running with pretty much minimal equipment. I have a sump, 25w UV sterilizer, had a Nautilus TE skimmer (upgraded to Coralife 220 after pics), have just added a clcium reactor (dosed 2-part by Natureef), just added a Phosban reactor, don't have a chiller and I...

I don't have any new pics of the main reef yet but for now here are some of a project I started a few weeks ago. It's my Seahorse/SPS/Blue-Spotted Jawfish Tank. It's a 29g tank in my bedroom.

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm no professional just someone who reads and experiments alot. Originally Posted by hot883 Greg, I love the tank and I like the lights too. I have a 125 glass, double corner overflows on layaway. It comes with a 20 year warranty. Looks very similar to yours...

I still use bioballs, make sure they stay clean and have wnough LR in the system to break down any nitrates that they may cause.

I found some old pictures of the sump and refugium, the calcium reactor I hooked up recently but had just as good of luck dosing if not better. I also have a MRC MR-3 skimmer that I got in a trade but have nowhere to hook it up at the moment. Here's the reactor in a custom stand that hides to...
