Wow! Thanks a lot! You all are too kind.
The tank has been set up for about 3 months. It is a 125gal, 48x24x25 acrylic tank. It replaced a 100gal tank that was 48x24x20 and also acrylic. I used the same stand and canopy. Everything else was replaced/upgraded. For lighting there are 2, 250W, DE, 14K Phoenix bulbs driven by a Blue Wave 7 ballast and 4, 110W, SuperActinicR, URI VHO bulbs driven by a LampsNow electronic ballast. I just put the 14K bulbs in, replacing two DE Ushio 10K's. I felt that the 10K bulbs "washed out" the colors on the corals too much. So, the Phoenix bulbs have been in a couple weeks and we shall see how they do.
I have a My Reef made sump. There is an Iwaki 40RLT returning water to the tank ( out of a single, 1", directional utube.). I also have a ReefFlo, Dart pump on a closed loop with two 1.5" intakes and 3, 3/4" outlets across the bottom behind the rock work. The closed loop also feeds two 3/4" seaswirls. Lots of flow with no powerheads.
An AquaController Jr. runs the whole show. I also use a Red Sea brand ozonizer w/ORP monitor. The O3 feeds into a EuroReef 8-2 skimmer. All top off is run thru a Precision Marine Kalk reactor. I use TLF brand Kalkwasser powder. I also have a Korallin 1502 calcium reactor. I dose Salifert brand amino acids and also use Salifert brand Magnesium. These are the only two additives I use.
