Spankey's 75g Reef Tank.........

Just wanted to share some photos of my 75g reef tank. About a month ago I moved my oceanic 30g sump to the basement and incorporated a frag tank under the stand. I wanted to be able to keeps the frags with the main tank in view so people could see the larger corals and then look at them in the frag tank. This way they don’t have to go down to the basement.


The frag tank is a custom made 22 long tank with 4-24” T5’s over it. The main tank is light by 6-4 foot T5’s.

The tank is mainly SPS but has some zoo’s and mushrooms in there too.

I do bi-weekly 12 gallon water changes with either Red Sea Coral Pro or H2Ocean salt.
I dose Prodibio Biodigest and Bioptim.
I also dose Zeo Coral Vitilizer, Amminos and Sponge Power.
The tank is skimmed with an MRC1 skimmer ran by a mag 18 pump!
Top off is done by an aquamedic top off pump from a 5 gallon reservoir I keep kalk in.
NO UV is ran on this tank or Ozone either.
I feed a mixture of mixed food every other day of cyclopeeze, shrimp, clam and squid this is homemade and frozen roughly every 5 months.

Got this as a freebie in a purchase last week and can't wait to see what it grows into. It's deep purple with neon green polyps!

Enjoy!
 
NICE, just made me feel better as I have had to recently "settle" from a 120g to a 75g.

2 quick questions:

1- is that an aga or oceanic tank?
2- what bulb configuration are you running, great color.

got a video uploaded somewhere?
 
also wondering what hardware you're running? (return pump, power heads?, trying to figure out how much flow you got going in that tank...)

Thanks!
 
Thanks!

I am running a mag 7 return, Vortech pumps for flow.

ATI bulbs and KZ Bulbs in the fixture.
