Nice looking pics.HEY,Is that some of MY algae I see in photo #1??????

 

[saltwater kid]

I have not added any corals yet. I will once I set up a drip system so I can dose Kalk. Um...Mr.Salty, there is another saltwater kid running around here, so you may have us mixed up.
MOST OF THESE FISH ARE NOT CURRENTLY IN MY REEF! THESE ARE MY FAVORITE PICTURES FROM THE 2 YEARS. UNFORTUNATELY, SOME OF THESE ANIMALS PASSED AWAY, AND SOME WERE GIVEN AWAY SO I COULD START OVER. I HAVE INCLUDED A PICTURE OF MY REEF CURRENTLY.
Here is my tank today. There is about 40# of LR which I am using as my base rock. I will add about 40-50 more pounds when I can afford to (I just blew all of my money on a RO/DI unit) I am using a 15 gallon sump and 10 gallon refugium/caulerpa grow-out tank. For a protein skimmer I use a Turboflotor 1000.
Flow: 1 RIO 1100, 2 RIO 600. Sorry about the misunderstanding. Please give any suggestions.....
55 Current Livestock...
12 Turbo snails
4 Green Chromis
2 Clarkii Clowns
1 Benggai Cardinal
1 Green Brittle Starfish
2 Pink- Tip Anemones
10 Gallon...
15# LR

Dang! That's nice! What type of lighting are you using on the 55 and th 10?

 

[saltwater kid]

On the 55 gallon I am using 4-55 watt Power Compact Bulbs. 2 of them are 8800k daylight bulbs and 2 are Actinic03 (true actinic) bulbs.
On the 10 gallon I am using a fixture that I bought at a LFS. It is a TOP series with 2 - 36 watt bulbs. 1 6500k daylight bulb and 1 actinic03 bulb.

I believe I read somewhere that your green Serpent star will eat corals also, so be careful.
