Another little update, it's so nice that I had to share with you guys

 

[NUBIANTANGLOVER]

Your PBT, sadly may have been the culprit of the death of your tankmates. The PBT is notoriously mean. There have many experiences here of PBTs being welcomed into a tank as they are so beautiful--only to come back later to discover all the tankmates dead.
I know you also stated that the PBT has white spots--maybe first stages of ick---hopefully that's not this case. Sorry Again about your lost.

Another small update, monday will be receiving my ultralith reactor and start the bacterial growth a few days after that....

Also upgraded my skimmer for a bigger one just to be on the safe side.
Here is my new baby:

As this trade require I am going much slower than before. Should start stocking on corals mid-october....

 

[kidney514]

also added:
a current-usa 40 watts uv that runs at the same time as my MH

 

[i2ik]

Hey Lorin! Everything is looking really good! Nice skimmer

 

[FFrankie]

What an awesome setup!

 

[jbriddle]

nice!!!

 

[kidney514]

Here are few of my new accro and recently added fishes.....

 

[kidney514]

Here is bunch of gobys, and really hope that this time around I have better luck with my naso.....

 

[kidney514]

Also some new hardware, a fully automated Ultralith Reactor, that shakes the rocks once a day...

 

[Ed Reef]

How does this work?? Need to get one for my Zeovit tank

 

[samson78945]

i will be following this thread closely!

 

[kidney514]

Unless you like shaking the rock everyday..... I wasn't reliable enough for that
It's just huge rush of air the enters the reactor by the bottom and move all the rocks.

 

[jimgldn]

Nice steup! Tank is coming along nicely.

Cheers,
Jim

Do you need an additional pump for that on a timer or using the same pump for the circulation for the reactor?

Also if you don't mind me asking, where do you purchased this automatic reactor??

 

[kidney514]

Ya you need a air pump to blow the air on a timer for that.

Fauna Marin makes them. I know here you can get it @ www.ReefConcept.com and they would probably ship it to you.
