All of my current corals came from local reefers, just a quick thanks to everyone!

Forgive my camera as it is seriously out-of-date and almost all photos taken by it turn out like crap :D

Just a quick rundown on equipment

29 gallon AGA
Remora w/mj1200 and prefilter
2 mj1200 with diy eductors
seio 620
via aqua 2300
30lbs liverock
150W Ushio 14KDE on HQI ballast

Readings
Nitrate: undetectable
Phosphate: undetectable
calcium: 420ppm
Alk: 3.6meq/L
pH: 8.3

Just a quick note on the eductors. I would have to say that they increase the flow to roughly 600gph (the flow comming from them looks almost identical to my seio 620). They were built from the housing of a pair of Hydor FLO deflectors. So overall I have a gross turnover of about 75X with a more realistic total of 50X. Thanks for lookin' :D
 
Looks good! Nice to see a fellow 29gallon college reefer.

My only criticism would be to rearrage the liverock into a more asthetically pleasing shape. I planned mine to have room based on how I was going to let frags grow out. Also get a magnesium test kit since that is the only other thing that I test for other than what you listed.

Any livestock plans?
