So I got a AP24 for a great deal from a local reefer in my club $25 I really liked the 10g contest tank but it was a bit small for my liking...I actually was going to set up a 20H, I had the T-5 lights and all...then I got the AP24 and decided to set er' up! :dance:

here is the contest tank everything has been transferred to the AP24...I don't think I ever started a thread here

So I have a 20" sunpod on the way.. I ordered a 14k Pheonix bulb wit mah contest GC, I chose Premium Aquatics cause they kick arse...mind ya'll this is the first time I have ever used MH and have no idea what the hellz I am doing lol I just did alot of reading and the pheonix 14k is supposed to have a nice blue color

I also ordered 15lbs of nano rock from Premium Aquatics with mah GC..so it will have more live rock soon

I did the eggcrate filter floss holder mod and put filter floss on top untill StevieT gets back to work and I order my "in Tank" fish saver and media rack from Home Page :p

equipment
20 lbs Natures Ocean black beach sand...this time no Tahitian moon sand
1x Koralia 1
1x MJ1200 with Hydor flow replaced stock filter
1x 100w heater
filled with Natural Sea Water
appox 19lbs LR

livestock
2x red head gobies
1x firefish
1x sixline wrasse

I hope that everyone that followed me along my 6 month contest tank journey will join me once again on my AP24 zoa/LPS extravaganza :D

Thanks Vicki! I love alot of color and I thought that the black sand will make the corals pop, hopefully the MH will bring out even better colors...in the 10g they were under T-5's and these pix were taken with the stock lid under 2x 32w 50/50 PC's

Nice Video, looks really good in there! I don't know how to do it, but could you add music to the video. It makes the fish look like they are dancing to it, but if not still a nice video!
How is you bigger tank coming? You should link it in your signature.
Thanks!
