The foot print I need to cover is 84"L x 36"W. So it's either 5 orpheks, 8 hydras, 6 hydra 52s or 4 cannons with strips.

You guys kill me. I've always wanted a couple to diversify my sand cleaning crew. The tiger sand sifters look good too.

Well some minor problems has been happening. I will try my best to keep them in order.
First off the calcium reactor has been running a while and for the most part the Alkalinity was averaging abou 7.6-7.8 dKh. Well after about 2 -3 WCs the alkalinity was rising about to 8.4 dKh, to 9.0 dKh, and now at 9.8 dKh. I mix my salt to 1.024 salinity and the parameters for that are calcium 390-410 ppm, dKh 7.3-7.7 dKh, and Magnesium at 1190-1210 ppm. Everything measured perfectly except for the dKh. My TDS meter(at least I thought) was reading zero and I had changed the filters approximately 2 months ago. Well I had my RO/DI water tested only to find out my actual TDS was around 65ppm. And on top of that the Alkalinity tested out at 2.5 dKh. Is that even remotely possible for fresh RO/DI water to test out like that.
Secondly, my phosphates which were around .08-.10 ppm(Hanna) were up at .19 ppm. I am going to take into consideration the TDS meter being off. But when I had my freshly mixed saltwater tested the phosphates were measured at .03 ppm. Its low but I also know its suppose to read zero so either my phosphates were higher than I thought and the water changes were bringing them down slowly, or that other reasoning I don't know what to think.
Thirdly, I picked up a few killer deals along the way as you can see in the 3 month anniversary video and in the upcoming video. I picked up a female blonde naso tang, convict tang, and a purple for $75 dollars and also got a 5" yellow belly hippo for $60.
So thats pretty much whats been going on with my tank. Enjoy the frag tank video.

Yes Dave it's a Reef Saavy tank. Is the video link not working?

My bad Dave. Reef Saavy is a well designed aquarium made in Florida. They make one of the sexiest tanks around.
