Great tank. I really love the rock work. I have a similar skimmer on my 60 gallon and it works great

Thanks! The skimmer has been working really well, just that it puts out a hell lot of micro bubbles!

evolutionZ, what a stunning tank. It's truly beautiful!

We're running slightly similar dimension tanks..

I was wondering, how is the Gyre treating you? I'm currently running 2 MP40's on a barebottom tank. While they are nice, I've always wondered about the Gyre in my tank.
Any feedback with pros/cons would be great!!

Thanks man! gyre's great! honestly i've only used Jebao WP/RW range of wavemakers and a single gyre gives out more then 2-3 of the jebaos i used previously. Its probably not as strong as 2x MP40s but im running wave mode at 60%, i have absolutely 0 dead spot and the left bottom part of my tank is actually bare now due to the gyre pushing all the sand away.. but i think whats best about the gyre is how close i can put SPS directly infront of the gyre flow and have no problems at all!

i cant think of any cons and they hardly catches any dirt whatsoever too.. really great product.

Looking really nice! The gsp are a great camouflage for the overflow.

Still one of my favorite aquascapes ever! Looking really good! Thats a nice big Pearlberry, and you're right about how hard it is to get a good picture that shows its colors properly.

I am in love with this aquascape. Don't have time right this second but I will def be reading through this thread and following. Your tank is an inspiration.

Thanks man! yes its actually a very nice purpleish-blue color! a pity its really difficult to get a good pic.. especially with T5 its almost impossible to take a top down pic!

Awesome, all the way back into the acro game!

I really like the one turning red, and the forest fire digi, always a favorite.

 

[reefmutt]

This is coming along very nicely!
Nice shots!
Curious to see your cherry blossom..
I picked up a 'supposed to be' cherry blossom, so I'm curious to see how yours develops.
