Schnitzel's Sticks
Figured I would start a new thread with pictures of my tank. Don't get much love on the Large tank section or the Southern California section. So I will try to keep this thread updated, assuming you guys like Sps.
My tank is 250g 96"x30"x21". Starfire, external overflow. Running 2-8x54w ATI fixtures with 2-Reefbrite XHOs. Sump: Bubble King double cone 250. Refugium. Geo 6x24 calcium reactor. Took these with my cannon T3i and Avast camera tube. |

Schnitzel's Sticks
Here's a few shots of the tank, and filtration. Pictures are kind of random. They are old pics I found going through my photobucket.
I initially ran a DIY LED/T5 light setup, but then switched to Radion/T5, and now I finally switched to all T5s with Reefbrites. Last edited by SchnitzelReef; 08/06/2016 at 08:28 AM. |

I dose all kinds of magic potions. Honestly not sure if they do anything, but I still dose them. Pohls Xtra special ME Amino acids Aquaforest A, B, V, E Aminos Pro Skimmer I also dose potassium nitrate to raise my nitrate level. For phosphates, I don't do anything. Just regular water changes I guess. Quote:
Which one? If its a big one I can cut frags. |
