Great tank, very neat work, I'm am curious about your results with the BRS dual reactor running BRS HC GFO, how do you find it? Also what brand of Carbon and GFO are you running and at what dosing? I am considering getting this for myself except that I am most likely going to be building a large external box to house it since I do not have a sump, just a large overflow.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Thanks pawlu,
I like the bRS dual reactor so far pretty easy to change and clean and I used a "T" off my return pump to run it. I use bRS HC GFO and BRS Rox carbon with the GFO before the carbon to catch fines! You don't need a sump for this it has an intake an exhaust port I just put mine in the sump because I ran out of room and didn't want to pull tons of flow off my return pump works great and have had no complaints yet!

Well little update treating the tank for red bugs with some interceptor tonight going to follow up with 2 more dosages the next few weeks! Got a few more corals got a large purple/white gorgonian, frag of what is so posed to be a blue tort, a rainbow Millie, fire digitata, and what I think is a chalice or firemallosa!
Here's a new tank shot!
Gorgonian
Forest fire digita
Chalice? Firelamossa

Thanks Doogle.... Hopefully in a year it will be a solid mass of coral and it will give me an excuse to upgrade to a 180!!!!

Thanks plantsman!! Thanks a ton... It's starting to color back up a bit I was neglecting on water changes for a while so I slowed feedings... Colors faded now I'm feeding heavy, and its coloring back up but I'm getting a good algae outbreak so off to bRS for some GFO!! Anyone need anything from BRS? I'm trying to get a group buy together!

Oh and the bugs.... I'd say 98% gone so far didn't loose any shrimp or crabs( have a few gorilla and stone crabs I wish would die) and all the amiphapods are still running around so all is good! For anyone with redbugs interceptor is awesome... I use Bayer for dips but whole tank treatment this seems golden!!
Good to hear it's working out so far. Tank looks great! Keep the pics coming.
