Toooloud,
Looks great, everything appears to be coming along really well.
Might I suggest a blue or black background on the tank? I think it would make your tank in habitants really stand out better.
If needed you could just mount some plexiglass that has been painted and stick it up there with some velcro and remove during maintence. I think it would make your tank stand out a little more.
Just a thought, still looks great though.

Sweet! That's a 125 gallon, right? Looks bigger every time I see it. Do you have a calcium or kalk reactor? Or are you just dosing additives?

Michael_Lambert · 09-02-2004, 01:35 PM

As for the Calcium.. I dose the Sea-chem Powder ALK and CAL.. I dose 5 gallons to my tank ( the evaporation ) 2 teaspoons of CAL in the morning and then 2 in the evening with my Top-up water 2.5 gallon Kent aquadoser.. and then 1 teaspoon of ALK directly to my Sump in the morning and evening..
