Nissan I've been away for a few weeks so I didn't get to follow along daily. But......HOLY CRAP! That looks friggin' amazing, Carlos. I'm floored. Most Impressive, dude.
Oh, and Meowzer.... I went looking for a shakey finger smiley on google for you. Word to the wise. Do not Google "naughty, naughty smiley." Those weren't the smilies you're looking for.

i have a question to all your reefers? will any of you run a calcium reactor or will you remain with the 2 part cal and alk liquids?

I use 2-part, but I only have a 37g with softies and LPS. If I was doing a larger, SPS dominated tank like yours, I'd probably go with a Ca Reactor.

If I had a tank like yours, I would use a reactor. I currently don't have a need to dose for ca, since my levels are always good and my tank is lightly stocked with corals.

IMO I would simply test. I hear conflicting theories on the ca reactors. I was interested one time and some how it went from ca reactors to phosphate reducers,

I understand why you would want one but do you think it would really make a difference? Justa askin. :) Lesser is better? Does that work with SW? Lol

i think he's wanting to have a lot of sps though. i've never ran one and know nothing about one so i can't knock it
