Re: The 175 Bow Front aka (The excuse for Vicki Dating Me)

So the waiting begins. We started the tank out with a Coralife Aqua Pro Series 3x250 & 4x96Watt PC Lighting system. As you can tell but the pictures bulbs from different manufactures look very different even thought they are the same rating.. To Cycle the tank I use Tropical Science Marine Max & Nitro Max to help get a good biological base started & then Marine Max Bi Weekly to maintain a healthy one.

Re: The 175 Bow Front aka (The excuse for Vicki Dating Me)

Thank you for all the comments it has been a "fun" project thus far with it's ups & downs all in all very few minor hicups.

Well here are a few of the corals in the tank. The tank is mainly softies & a few clams nothing to extravagant. I have to get the picture taker to shoot some pictures before the weekend is out. With some FTS & a list of the inhabitants.

Re: The 175 Bow Front aka (The excuse for Vicki Dating Me)

I forgot to mention the tank light @ the time of these photos was a Coralife 3x250 4x96 Watt 72" HQI Setup. The next batch of pictures that will be taken this weekend are with the Solaris 250 Watt 20,000K LED System.

Heinz if you are refering to the inhabitant above the jawfish that is actually a dursa clam
