Gorgeous!!.....can we get some equipement pics. Also what do you contribute to your obvious success? I didnt catch it but do you run with a DSB ?

Thanks.

Thanks.As far as the success,i think daily,obsessive observation , extremely stable parameters and weekly 25 % water changes with parameter matched sea water mixed with 0 TDS RODI and a efficient skimmer is probably the school of thought i follow.I have been back and forth between bare bottom and sand a half dozen times and i am not sure at this point which is better if either is.i currently run a sand bed.I dont have a lot of equiptment pics but i will post what i have anyway.Thanks again

I have been back and forth between bare bottom and sand a half dozen times

I could have swore you HAD sand in the bottom when I took the pics.. but the last time I came over before that... you had NO sand...??? How much was I smoking??? or is this true?? lol

Your right Jon,i was running it bare bottom up until about 3 months ago.I added some live sand to try and bump my nitrates down a bit and also give my clams something a bit more natural to sit on.
