- I wanted to share my reefing adventure with everybody. My system consist of about 300g TSV with 2 systems that share the same sump. The two systems are a 120g display with a 100g frag tank. My 120g aquarium is designed for long term sustainability that hopefully will not ever get disturbed. Here are a few pictures of this system.

Oh no, now I have a problem. Pretty soon I am going to have a egg crate covered in encrusting montipora.

The pink tips show up better in macro shots

I try to glue every little piece that breaks onto a plug.

Nice acros! I love having a separate acro frag/growout tank attached to the main system.

Thanks! Yep, the extra water volume is really nice. Plus it allows me to move corals from one system to another without having to acclimation them.

Haha, I remember when I said that about coraline algae. Now I am scraping my tank every week just to be able to see through the glass.

I am running the same bulbs on the frag tank as well, Phoenix 14k 250w HQI DE.
