~300G (1125L) Build, pics from last 6 months

Awesome :celeb1: the tank and stand are very sleak and clean, really fits in well in your place. Love the dwarf angels too, the lemon peel and flame are cool.
 
Very clean.

I'm a big fan of your tank! Please update us frequently.:celeb1:

Very Nice tank. Love the colors.

Thanks!

Lovely tank

Do you have your full system diagrams??
If you do, please post it.

Thank you. I've got only some sketches that I sent to an aquarium manufacturer. The rest of the system was designed just in my head :hmm3:


Here are some photos that show how Chevron tang is changing his coloration:

Best looking tank to my taste. natural looking rock-scape not overly crowded, and the fish selection is just mouth watering.

Excellent job!
 
Snocho,
Great thread and tank!!!! I knew your tank looked familiar after seeing it in a video for pacific sun. I have their 60" t5/led on my 72x36x28 and get amazing par numbers. With all lights on at 100% and the fixture 30" from the sand bed I get par reading near 300. If you were thinking about making a switch, I dont think you would need a custom fixture especially since all of your corals are in the center of the tank.

Anyway, great tank and awesome build! Keep up the good work!
 
Small update.

I had a problem with cyanobacteria and dinoflagellates. I made a treatment with Chemi Clear and got rid of cyanos but dinos are still here. Current view:

Due to hight level of phopshate and nitrate I set up a refugium:

Meantime I also changed a skimmer. I bought a secondhand Royal Exclusive BK300.

Amazing tank and setup !!

Can you tell us your water values ? Sorry for my english.

Did you have polip reduction in acors with high po4 and no3 ?
 
So much attention to detail, love it.

So sorry to hear about the achilles.

Enjoyed the video alot. Post more close up videos of the tanks.

Thank you.
temperature: 23 C
density: 1,023 g/cm3
pH: 8,2
KH: 7
NO3: <5 mg/l
PO4: <0,1 mg/l
Ca: 405 mg/l
Mg: 1180 mg/l

I've got in the tank the best 'polyp reductors' you can imagine. We call them Centropyge but IMO their name should be changed :) C. flavissima nips SPS polyps all day long. Unfortunately she taught C. loriculus and acanthops to do the same. That is why I didn't notice polyp reduction due to high levels of NO3 and PO4.

Great looking set up, very clean. Thanks for sharing !

Man what a set up.

One of my favourite tanks!Well done bro!

Thanks!

What sand did you use in this build?

It's Nature's Ocean Bio-Activ Live Samoa Pink. I just removed all these shell fragments and granules larger than 1mm.

So much attention to detail, love it.

Tahnk you. I'll try but My camera is very poor so close ups may not be perfect.

Meantime my little girl discovers the aquarium...
