Jbob's 40 Breeder

jbob · 09-21-2008, 02:50 AM

Reef Specs:
Tank - 40 Breeder
Sump/Fuge - 20L
Skimmer - Auqua C Urchin
Closed Loop - Ocean Runner 2500/SCWD
Return - Ocean Runner 2500
Extra Flow - Koralia 1
Heater - 200w Hydor theo

Well this tank is a upgrade my of 10g. That tank got overgrown way too fast. I joined RS so i could get a pair of Doni's Picasso's for my reef. So i figured it was time to start a thread. Here's some pics!

Very nice upgrade and I really like the aquascaping! Beautiful fish & corals. Keep up the great work

Thanks alot. It means a ton coming from you. Cant wait till you start shipping. The tank will have alot more movement with some active fish in it.

Can you post pics of your sump in action? TIA!

Nice tank. What is your water temp at?

jbob · 09-21-2008, 05:44 PM

My temp peaks at around 79-80. i know its too high for the catalina goby. we were at the lfs at my girlfriend picked it out. so as soon as i got home i looked it up and found out its a cold water fish. so i turned down the heater a little bit. we'll see how it goes.

i'll post sump pics soon.

Nice 40!

You give me some ideas for mine.

T5's seem like a great choice.
