Doc,
Beautiful tank. Beware though the clowns are hosting....the Anemone will now decide its favorite spot is directly in the center of your viewing glass about 1/2 way up. hehe

Glad to see you guys liked the pics it makes it all worth it LOL as I stood there looking at all of it today I wondered how it all really got there? how odd its been just at two years now since I started planning it.
I was wondering why he did not move??? Am I doomed to have an anemone stuck in the center of my viewing pane?

Hello,
Yes it has been a while since the last update! Tank has fish and a few corals in it right now I have been fighting the learning curve of "The easiest, intuative Calcium reactor on the market" LOL I dropped out of college chem because I hated this stuff... Any way the Koralline 4002 reactor is great I am just stupid and trying to get my Ca+ up LOL but I think that I finally have it down... I will work on getting some pics going this weekend maybe

OK OK Pics and Updates...
I use Reef Crystals Salt so I should? be good there, DKH was at 48 last check
Pics of the Kalk system will have to wait for next update
Finally, have Ca+ up to 325 not really sure why so hard to get this up? BIG 4002 Koralline reactor... anyway she is a rising finally. Had started a supplemental dosing system from a small refrigerator to the aquadoser and into the tank... I made the mistake of dosing fully as I do my overstocked tanks upstairs and this week I have lots of algea so I figured out DUH that because there is minimal livestock I have been overdosing and I have tempoarily shut down the doser.. I installed a 30 gallon Kalk dripper to maintain the PH... Finally PH is up from 7.8-9 to a pretty steady 8.0 + ... These pics are from last week before the bloom
These pics are from the evening so 1/2 of the lights are already turned off
Here is a few example of how all manmade objects have been covered in foam to make them look like rock... Can you pick the return jet out from the real live rock? I have started impregnating the jets and feeders ect. with zoos and Merlettis
Feeder Ports
Feeders one both sides of the tank
My anemone that I got from the TILER is so BIG and Happy the clowns love it!

That arch has really turned out a lot better than I thought it would have! What corals do you have in mind to adorn that arch? I think it would look really sweet to have a gorgonian growing up from behind the arch, so that only a portion of it is visible. That would add some depth and mystery to the aquascape, IMO.
You've done an excellent job concealing all of the return plumbing. I can't wait to see some of those micros growing out in your tank.
