Just do a Google search for 'Scott and Tammy's 4x4 SPS reef' and there are pages of different sites with your tank being shown, your a famous man Scott:celeb1:.

Well if I'm going to send you some frags Fishy I might as well make it worth while and pack a box full buddy :lol:

What's your complete T5 combo and lighting schedule, Scott?

Cheers
Mo

Mo my combo is-
6 ATI blue+
4 ATI coral+
2 ATI aquablue special
2 ATI purple+
2 ATI actinic

Lights run full for 9 hours and 1 hour either side for actinic so 11 in total
 
Haha, what size box are we talking? :beer:.
Scott did you buy your SPS from the LFS or did you get most from local mates?

Just one that will fit inside a 5kg express post bag mate but I can squeeze a few in it ;)
Most came from my LFS and only the odd piece from mates :)
 
I'll get there Fishy :lol: been a busy man lately and just haven't had the chance to make a start yet :(
In your own time Scott, don't want the video to be hastily put together now do we:) hey Scotty would you mind sharing your weekly procedure for the tank like dosing, feeding, water changes things like that:D

I'm just making a start on it now Fishy :)

My weekly procedures are as follows mate-

Water changes are 180L every week using Red Sea standard blue bucket salt, when I water change I clean all glass and bracing by hand, siphon the sump of any detritus, clean skimmer cup, top up RO/DI and I clean my back glass and tunze once a month.

I'm dosing using Randy's recipe and my amounts are 500ml of Alkalinity daily, 500ml of Calcium daily, 150ml of Magnesium daily and I've just started hand dosing Potassium a bit more reguarly as I found it's been on the lower side.

I've only ever fed my fish and have never added any sort of coral food. I'm feeding 1 block of frozen plus pellets in the morning and the same again at night, once a week I add some nori for my tangs and foxface just to keep them happy :)

Hope I didn't miss anything mate let me know if I have :)
 
Good stuff bud, I expect it to be better than the last one....the pressure is on:lol:.
Gee that's a lot of calcium, alk and mag but with all those SPS I'm not surprised. What's your procedure for changing the bulbs, do you do them all at once or over the period of days, weeks, months?
