Atomic081's 225 Gallon Reef w/ Basement Fish Room

[Atomic081]

I went to the INDMAS frag swap yesterday. Because of the tank being so new, i decided to hold off on buying a bunch of stuff. I did win 3 corals in the raffle and bought a GIANT frogspawn (they are in a buddys tank now) I also met alot of people who are gonna help me fill the tank though in a few weeks!!!

You will be fine with 2 of them! Did you get the dual wavemaker?

No. I had one I got last year and just added one from fish street yesterday.

 

[Atomic081]

I highly recommend the dual wavemaker. It seems almost impossible to Sinc 2 of them together without it.

Can you just buy the controller and put them together?

Yes I think so

Crap, I just ordered a second wp40! Will it be too much for a 180?

It might be a sand storm but you can run one at 50% and one at 100% to simulate wave action. Try to get the multi controller and you can sync them pefectly

Its actually a cavalier king Charles spaniel. The close up pic makes her look big but she is only 18 lbs.

Really? Looks just like a bernese mountain dog!

Yes you can buy just the controller. I know reef breeders sells them on there website now. Not sure where else has them.

I transferred my fish from the qt to my display today. They look so small now!

Thanks! I might out the purple in the sump when I add more fish. He is very dosil though. The clowns ruled my old tank.

Agreed. Very nice shots. Having introduced the clean up crew first, was there enough for them to eat?

I got a cleanup crew for a 90gallon. so I actually need to buy a few more hermits for the display and frag tank.

Sorry I mixed them up. I've always found I've need a lot less than people recommend so going with a few more makes sense.

 

[Sonicboom]

Definitely go with less and add as needed. This way there will be a constant supply of food.
