You have some huge corals man, nice looking tank

 

[Doogle]

Wow! You got another pic with all the lights on? What's that on the top right?
You really did well spacing them apart and letting them grow having plentiful space like you did, bravo!

Hi
During the last couple of months I have been improving my tank equipment:

I installed a calcium and phosphate reactor with reactor

An apex controller connected to a netgear wirless adaptor

And added 2 G2 radions (i had 4 T5ho lights before)

I am loving the way the colors pop with those lights

My tank has mainly soft corals, after the improvements I plan to challenge SPS corals

I will be updating the thread.

Wow! Great looking tank! Looks like something off of mr. Saltwater tank tv.

Love the tank especially the green micro algae in the DT

tank looks cool. i love the scape. i want mine a bit more interesting and dynamic. Only thing that may be annoying for you is that you will never get the sides of the tank as crystal clean as you would like with your live rock so close to the glass. for some reason you get algae congregates around this area and you cant get your scraper in all the nooks and crannys!! nice diy tho very neat and visually appealing setup. Wat stock you planning?

Thanks for your comments

Andy.
Yes, cleaning the sides of the tank is pretty difficult and i cant remove all.
I think i shouldve planned to leave some gap between the tank and walls.

I plan to change all my soft corals for SPS. I dont know which corals i will get since where i live there is not much available.

I have these fishes:

-blue tang
-yellow tang
-2 ocellaries clownfish
- 1 cardinal
-1 six line wrasse

Tangs and clownfish have been in the tank for more than 2.5 years. I will keep them though
