| Tunicate  | Greetings Everyone! Hello everyone, my name is butch. I'm an electrician from Uxbridge, MA. My tank has been set up for about 6 weeks now. Here's a list of the specs: Oceanic 90 Gallon Bow Front Tank Oceanic Stand and Canopy Kent Marine 60 Gal Hi-S RO\DI Unit 20 Gallon Precision Marine Sump Precision Marine Bullet One Skimmer Sedra KSP900 Skimmer Pump (900GPH) Precision Marine Calcium Reactor Eheim 1048 reactor Pump Mag 12 Return Pump 2 Maxi-Jet 1200's to Spray Bars CoraLife Turbo-Twist 6X 18W Sterilizer Jalli A27 Light Fixture W/2-250 MH's + 2-39W T-5 Atinics All Heaters Removed Pacific Coast CL-280 Chiller Neptune AquaController 3 (all direct-connect control)(ethernet to PC) Oceanus Posiedon Top-Off Controller 60# Fiji LR and 100# Indonesian LR 40# Aragonite 60# LS Everything is on back-up generator For livestock, all I have is a very good clean-up crew, a good size Xenia a red tree sponge and red ball sponge (got the sponges for free) That's about it. I think I have all the major parts in place. Now I'm just waiting for the tank to mature a bit before adding anything. Have a great day, Butch  <wow you guys have a million of these things! |

| Reef Lobster  | Re: Greetings Everyone! Howdy Butch, welcome to Reef Sanctuary.  I was reading over your specs, and maybe I misread, but you don't have any heaters in your tank? I guess with all those pumps you probably don't need any...
