Manhattan-reefers: Let's see your tanks!

[jenniebutterfly]

thanks house, i try

trying to get my hands on a 29 gallon stand now so i can put my halide up and stick my corals in it. this tank will become my husbands lion tank. he wants a fu man chu now. i hate to risk it with my clown living with one lion, i would hate to see what would happen if i added a second one with him

although he is a mean little sucker

Fu man Chu's - tre expensive.

Good luck and if I see a 29 stand I'll shoot you a note

Andres, that frag swap was the reason the tank is where it is now. Just tryna add on the finishing touches (overflow box, skimmer, and return pump and the system is done...for now). I got so much for so little it was great. I'm slowly going SPS dominant. Trying to trade and trade some more for SPS.

Thanks. I have a huge two chamber Calcium reactor and a kalk stirrer for all my top water, I also use Dow Flake when the ca level drops below 360.

cali_reef, beautiful tank . Great job!

Could you post some close ups? and what is you tanks specs, i.e. water volume, lighting, etc....?

Justin_NY - my lighting is: 4- 110 watt VHO actinics, 3- 250watt HQI DE MH (two are AB 10K bulbs far left and right, and center is a AB 20K bulb).

 

[cali_reef]

solbby,

Thanks for the compliment. Don't have any close ups on the server I can link right now, will get some up next week.

It is a 150g Inter American low iron glass tank, 48"Lx30"Wx24"H with euro brace and two corner overflows. Total system water volume is about 600 gallons, I have this tank, a 180 gallon fish only tank and a 125 gallon surge pool\look down tank all connected with a common sump and feed pump. Lighting is done with two 250W SE XM 10K driven by a PFO HQI dual ballast and reflected with two Luminarcs. I also use two URI VHO actinics 03 driven by a icecap as supplement during the few hours I am home looking at the tank. Water flow provided with a Tunze wave box, a Ampmaster 3K on a close loop feeding two 1" sea swirls, and the main system pump (SEQ6000) feeding two penductors. LMK if you have any more questions.

Pierce,

Awesome looking tank but that pic does it no justice. The colors are much deeper/better in person. You got to post some close up shots of the corals

 

[jhale]

cali-reef, what is the 125 gallon surge pool\look down tank ?
it sounds cool. I can't picture what it looks like though.
do you have any pics of that
