Nice tank & Cleaner Shrimp. Is that 55gal?

I had a similar question. Where can I buy those half round overflow strainers?

My LFS had those, They called it a Nano Goby. Ii'm not sure on scientific names though

That clams a beaut! Those SPS got some good color too. Looks great

Holy Crap! I don't know what to say, a lot of the plumbing is over my head so I'm just going to say great Aquascaping.

Has anyone ever used Liquid Reactor? What to you use in your tank? Kalkwasser, Liquid Calcium, or a Calcium Reactor. I'd like to know what people think works better and experience with any to compare. Plus if you mix your own and use additives (ex. Iron, Madnesium, Strontium, Iodide). And if you...

The orange caps look great!

WoW, It took forever to go through all those posts. The tank looks really nice. I hope all goes well I only have one question...are any of your frags taking off nicely and growing rapidly?

I like that starfish. I had one of those in my tank. It disappeared though, So I can't give you any info. I really like the aquascaping too. All those base rocks make really nice overhangs, and will also be good places to rest corals. (I'm guessing you want a reef tank). Your tank looks kinda...
