It's ALL gotta go!! Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.

| Plate Coral | Re: The 90 gallon Road Trip I Think you have the nicest 90g I have ever seen! I'll start reading from the beginning of the thread but if I don't find what I'm looking for can you share your lighting setup with us along with other pieces of equipment you have to run this beautiful tank. Weekly/monthly chores?

| Golden Moray ![]() | Re: The 90 gallon Road Trip Thank you! The 90 has two 400 watt halides with XM 20K bulbs. They are housed in LumenBright reflectors. For a skimmer I am running an Octopus Extreme 200. I have a 15 watt Current Gamma UV. For power heads I have one Tunze 6101 on a single controllwe and a Korallia Controllable PH's, with a 3 and a 4. I have an ATO with a 20 gallon resivore. I have a Korallin Calcium reactor, and have a Kalk tub, 18 gallons, that is pH controlled by my RK2. When my pH gets below 8.25 it starts the kalk drip and when it gets above 8.3 it shuts off. Other than that it is pretty simple. Matt |
