Office Mini Reef

[Roll221]

Not sure why I never posted pics of this before. Could be we are not allowed to have cameras at work. Anyway, got permission to bring one in today and took these pictures.
It is a 20 gal RR tank, 10 gal sump, Mag 5 for a return pump, two 55w power compacts. The first pictures shows a Berlin skimmer but it has a Eruo Reef ES-5 in it now. The stand and canopy was built by Tim (Old Crab). Only additive is B-Ionic at recommend dosage and my old standby Salifert Trace Hard. I try to do 5 gal water changes every other week but it is real pain carrying it in to do. So it ends like being 5 gals every month or so.
It's been setup for about 18 months and has it's ups and downs but since putting in the Euro Reef and trying really hard to keep up with the water changes things have really started to take off.

Very Nice. What do the co-workers think.

What type of coral is the one in the last photo?

 

[Bullet]

Your so screwed. I can see all of those official documents in the reflection off the glass. Now I can finally take over the world!!

Looks good Ed! I love those zoo's on that candy coral.

Very nice tank, did you buy the zoo's mixed in the Caulastrea like that of grow them there yourself? Oh and what reddish LPS is that on the left in the third pic?

I guess Phil got his answer from the last two post. No, the zoo's grew up there all by them selves. I was hoping all the heads would come together and drowned out the zoos but now luck so far.

Are you going to break down that tank also? Would be interested in the piece we are discussing I think.

No, this tank is staying in the office. There are plenty of reef keepers at work to take care of it when I leave.

Sorry,
Ed
