Ben,

Looks real good!

Thanks for the hawkfish, I haven't seen him take any thing but pods did he eat frozen or what?

i think you should add a harlequin tusk sucks htat your wifey didnt want him. anyways the tank looks awesome, you should get a tunze wavebox, those things rock

 

[benf]

Thanks for the compliments!

Greg, he mostly ate frozen...especially pieces of krill!

Forgot to mention, all fish and corals were added right away! Being that i used my existing sand and rock except 2 pieces and used alot of my existing water, i found no reason not to put everything right away. NO problems....the corals that died were not a result of cycling!

Very nice! I'm assuming from the thumbs-up above that John built the tank for you? I can't wait until I have the space for a tank that size

 

[benf]

You are correct, John did the tank.

Chris, i am using a Hammerhead pump feed 2 returns, 1/3hp chiller and 30gal refuge located outside. Overflow has 3 2" drains feeding into a 3" pipe into the sump. All other plumping is 1.5".

I also have EuroReef RC 8-3+ skimmer and Aqual Ultraviolet 40w UV.
2 phosban reactors, 1 with carbon and 1 with phos material.

2 Tunze 6100's for flow and Tunze Osmolator and Kalk dispensor (soon to be hooked up) into my 20gal high tank i use for water top off.

Sump is ~35gal acrylic also from John.

4 250 Reef Optix3 with 2 10k Reeflux bulbs and 2 Phoenix 14k bulbs with 2 T5 actinics. Only other item i can think of is i also run Ozone into my skimmer.
