Where did you got the info to your set up?
I am currently reading a book that recomends exactly the equipment you have there.
LR, LS, skimmer, calc reactor and MH's.:thinking:

Simply fantastic. If it looks like that now, I can't wait to see it when the frags grow in!
Great work.

dboy999: i have redone alot of stuff in my sump but it basically is still the same........i have the overflow bring water to my euro reef then it goes down into the fuge (or keeps going through baffles) and in my fuge gets skimmed once again by my tunze skimmer and claciuma nd alk are added and then it returns to sump goes through carbon and through the baffles (which are filled with algae to help scrap excess nutrients) and then up my return and into the tank again
Sergeant: I really got my info from many places....i have read about 4 or five books (about 2,000 pgs total!), have been on many online forums like this one.......but mostly working at ReefSplendor I have gained a lot of knowledge (thats why i redid my sump a little) i work about 10 hours on sat and 6 hours on sun - so i talk to alot of ppl about reefs during the day......
evilss, JULIUS, tru conch, smarls, thanks for all the compliments.....the tank is growing in now and i have alot more corals so it looks pretty different now......i also am stocking with a few more smaller fish (got rid of clown tang cause he wasn't eating well and was worried he didn't get enough food) like fairy wrasse that you don't see often, so the tank is looking much better
