My custom 40gallon

I went for the 40 because It was easier to move around to take photos from, plus the dimensions are great. It has a 2in drain with 2 3/4 returns from a squid with a homemade enductor on one side and a spray bar on the other. I use a modded Koralia 4 (maximod) for extreme flow and a 250watt mogul (aqua connect bulb)=expensive bulb!!! Run on a duel PFO hqi ballast. A 100 rubbermaid sump connected to a 25g masonary tub for a fuge also lit by a 250mogul.
The skimmer is an over powered ETSS Reef Devil I modded for capacity.
The pump is a dolphin ampmaster 3400. Here are some pics:

What is the red algae in your fuge? Let me know if you want to part with some. And do you have a brine shrimp hatchery in there? Awesome setup!!!
 
Got it from Hawaii(dont tell) It grows roots! I will be able to harvest again in about a week and I will get you some. Yes that is a Brine kit in there but for rotifers.
Thanks
 
do you get alot of rotifers doing it that way? do you release rotifers into your tank? Let me know when you have some algae. thanks
