| Harlequin Tuskfish | Hello all and Merry Christmas I have been hanging around the edge of the Reef for almost a year now and finnally decided to take the dive and join. I have a 75 gal. seaclear II with 4 inches of live sand and 100 lbs. of live rock, two Ehiem canister filters, wet/dry filter, built in protein skimmer, 15W UV filter, hang on back refugium, wavemaker with four power heads, 140W of T12 lighting. Live stock: 2 clarkie clowns, 1 sixline wrasse, 1 scopas tang, 1 green manderin dragonet, 1 sand sifting star fish, 1 cleaner shrimp, 1 red scallop, leather coral, finger leather corals, mushrooms, polyps, ricordia, 1 open brain coral and misc. cleaner crew. I also have a 5 gal Nano tank with live rock, live sand, Ehiem canister filter, built in refugium, redsea protein skimmer, 36W of PC lighting. Live Stock: mushrooms, polyps, some kind of seaweed that just started growing on its own (large), finger leather coral (frag from the main tank), cleaning crew, large green brittle star. Tank perameters: Main Tank: SPG-1.024, No3-0, No2-0, ammonia-0, PH-8.2, temp-79.4, Ca-740 (adjusted Ca after test, haven't retested yet) Nano Tank: SPG-1.025, No3-0, No2-0, ammonia-0, PH-8.2, temp-80, Ca-??? The main tank is alittle over one years old and I just started adding corals about three months ago....just taking it nice and slow. The Nano tank is a couple years old. I'm still learning and trying to do it right...I had a major failur a couple years ago and decided to give it one more try the differance this time being educating my self VS. doing what I think is right.....Happy Holidays ALL!!! |
