29 Gallon Update Pics
Here's My Setup:
29 Gallon Acrylic with a 96 watt smart lamp
22 lbs live rock and 35 lbs of sand
2 perc clowns and 1 flame hawk
mushrooms, zoanthids, sun coral, xenia and gsp
5 peppermint shrimp
various snails and hermits
Feeding:
I feed a cube of frozen food 2 - 3 days a week. I alternate between various types.
Maintenance:
I top off with kalkwasser almost everyday.
I change one gallon of water once a week. After I've removed the water I run carbon for a few hours then I remove the carbon and add the new saltwater.
I test salinity when I do water changes.
I test ph, nitrate, alk and calc when my xenia's don't look right. If alk and/or calc are off I dose with Reef Calcium or Reef Carbonate.
The tank was set up in November 2002.
I'll start off with some progress pics. This is my tank about a month after it was set up:
