Hey everyone I have a 150 gallon tank 6' 18" and 28". I have 150 lbs of rock in there but I made sure to have a lot of swimming room. I also have a 40 gallon breeder as a mechanical filter to the side of my tank with a aquamax q3 protien skimmer and 6 gallons worth of Marine pure balls. Plus 2 8'' 8'' 4'' MP Blocks
I also have any other 40 gallon long under my tank running the refugium with a 5'' sand bed. Has been running for 4 months now.
YES it is a Frankenstein tank. But it's working for me. I have two separate overflow boxes. The 40GL refugium cycles 260 gph and the 40 breeder cycles 600gph. In water quantity I'd say there is about 215gallons (150 main tank, 40 in the refugium, and 25 to 30 in the breeder)
I know this won't make a difference with some types fish I'd like to keep and I'm aware they will out grow the 150.But I want you all to know there is good filtration on the tank.
The fish list I have listed down below are fish I would like! Some I do already have in the 150 or in anothere tank I have up stairs.
1Silver Foxface HAVE 6" in the 150
2 pajama cardinal HAVE 2'' in the 150
2 engineer HAVE 3" up stairs and will be going in the 150 at 5" to 6" (Everything's glued!)
1 red coris wrasse HAVE 5" in the 150
6 chromis DONT HAVE
1 Achilles. DONT HAVE
1Sailfin. DONT HAVE
1purple or kole. DONT HAVE
Old pic but that's the tank.
Thanks and let me know your thoughts.
