Minnesnowta Zoo's 350

[yslexdia]

Hey all. Been a loooooong time since I've visited the site. Thought I'd post some pics of my project. :beer:

The dimensions are 72L x 36W x 31H.
Lit by three 400W HQI w/Ice Cap ballasts, and I'm currently using Hamilton 14K lamps.
It also has eight 36" HO T5 lamps, I'm currently running 6 ATI Aqua Blue Plus (and 2 ATI Aquablue (12K)

I run a Korallin calcium reactor, DelTec phosphate reactor, and a retro-fitted sulfur reactor made out of an old calcium reactor body. I also have a Reef Flow skimmer.

There's a 150 gallon sump, which is partially filled with live rock.

I run Tunze pumps w/controller for recirc.

The tank has been going for about 2.5 years, most corals were added in the first year, some of the SPS were added in the 2nd year. I haven't added anything significant for a year or so.

Sorry the pics aren't great...iPhone pics. I'll see if I can find a few better pics on the hard drive somewhere.

Meantime...enjoy!

Is this the Minnesota Zoo in Applevalley? I looked at that tank if that is the case and was in awe! Perfect timing for my visit in the early summer when I was planning out my reef build. My oh my, the fish have grown since I went there I think, may be confusing the fish with other aquariums lol.
