44 Gallon Pentagon soon to be reef tank!

[navy_guy]

A work in progress. Just bought a 24" aqua light and will be making a new hood for it this weekend. Need a couple of power heads and will upgrade my horrible protien skimmer. Let me know what you think? Always open to new ideas.

I like the corals and the update pics of your tank. Looks very good.

Very nice Navy Guy. To answer your questions asked in my thread, I have 3 power heads. 2 Koralia #1s and a Koralia #2. I also run a bio wheel filter which has carbon inside bi-monthly.
That light that you are running should allow you to keep almost anything. I would just suggest to keep clams and anemones midway up or higher.

Thanx for the feed back!!! Looking at getting a Toadstool, Richordia, and some more colorful zoos. Do you have any suggestions?

Try to find an ORA green or pink tipped toadstool. I have a huge brown toadstool which is nice but not very colorful. As for zoas, for the colorful ones you could spend up to $50 per polyp. Just try to get an assortment of colors. The best advice I can give you is to focus more on a variety of colors rather than specific corals. Green is the most common color so try to limit your green coral purchases.
