Re: Natural Sunlight tanks

I will take a pic of equipment and I think that will answer a few questions.
Basically, custom sump, custom downdraft, float switch, peristaltic pumps for additives, UV 6 hours on/6 hours off(high tide-low tide).
I believe the bacteria content within the water column(in the wild)changes as Open Ocean water rushes in over the reef, as oppose to the tide shifting and then bringing in the high-nutrient bay water over the reef.
I'm talking about the reefs here in the Keys.
(just my own weird UV strategy, based on what we see and have sampled in the wild).

keep in mind............. I'm crazy.
