Welcome to RS!

Thank you for posting pics. Amazing looking tank you have there.

It's going to be fun following along with you as you explain how you go about raising clown fry and harlequin babies. That's a subject that has a LOT of interest for me.

I Know Its A Huge Bioload But I'm Working On Project 240 And Should Be Setup In October/november

Welcome ABoard

Welcome to RS.. Man those acros looke great. Do you use any additives in the tank?

tbittner · 03-07-2008, 10:43 AM

That fish list would probably push the limits of a 240, especially as they grow. Have you thought about a nice, big, 450?

GSELLERS · 03-07-2008, 10:43 AM

i only use tropic marin pro elements, and ammino acids by tropic marin.

goldenmean · 03-07-2008, 10:48 AM

Howdy Hoooo!
Welcome to RS!

You have a great looking system.
Thanks for the pics!

GSELLERS · 03-07-2008, 10:53 AM

i wish i could afford a 450, but the 240 will be pushing it....also i feed my fish well so they in turn feed the corals well. When they purge during feeding time i call it crop dusting....the corals love it
