Hey guys.. sorry been really really busy with work.. But the tank progress hasnt stopped.

Basic idea of the tank: Mixed reef.. far left side, under the overhang, there is low flow and low light. its going to be the chalice and acan area. Middle of the tank is suited for euphyllia.. i have bubble torches frogspawn and diff hammers there. as you go further left there is more intense light and more flow.. various sps.

here are some pics

The details now..

automatic water change. timed every week - automatically starts mixing water on friday afternoon 2 pm. And does auto change on saturday 2 pm.

2) yellow tang
2) achielles tang
3) 2 snowflake clowns

hey guys.. DISASTER .. the eurobrace cracked! on the front and tank is bowing out 1/4 to 1/2 inch!!!!! tank was built by DAS aquarium and now i am getting in touch with them. i have nylon strapped in the middle so the bowing has decreased a little bit. I dont want to take a chance.. hahaha.. this thread might be longer than expected!!
