Dialup beware #2 tank pictures

[geoxman]

vsnph, That quote was from Dr.Mac not myself. I do keep a few SPS in my system and they do rather well.

jessp, Yes I have a high flow tank. IMHO zoanthids need a higher, broader flow that most SPS. This helps keep sediment from decaying on their mat.

I have (2) Seio 1500 at present and a mag24 for a return, that is spread out over 4 different outlets. So just a guess but about 4000 GPH plus, on a 61.5 gallon tank

The return is off in most of the pictures, when on there is still very little ripple effect on the surface-some but not much.

Even though I do not skim, I do use other natural methods for nutrient exportation.

I can try and get pictures over the weekend with everything on.
Thanks

And those are?

DSB in the sump, a large refugium, aptasia cylinder/port, a lot of fan worms and a very very large clam. That is basically it on this system. My new sump will have a much larger aptasia colonial area and use a few different natural filtration methods.

Aptasia cylinder/port???

 

[geoxman]

An area split off of the return that can be opened and have aptasia deposited. It is an old Eheim filter with the sponge end sealed with a pvc cap with a 3/4 hole drilled into it that flows through a UV-then back into the chiller then sump return. As of now I maybe have 150 or so, I would like to have a couple thousand by next year.

Beautiful Tank geoxman!

So much information dispersed throughout the thread. I would love to see this setup in a "Zoo TOTM" LOL. I'm learning so much. You and MuchoReef have really inspired me to start up my tank.

Keep up the good work. I look forward to any updates and maybe a full write up with pics???

Thanks,
Mike

I haven't seen Geoxman for a while here. Hope everything's OK.

I seen your tank before once and was shocked at how cool it was. I have to say this is beter looking than any sps tank iv seen. Love the clam.

 

[andy321]

I like the aquascape to me it looks like a stadium full of zoas surounding a clam

 

[Pufferpunk]
