Luc, great to see you have started a thread here!

I have seen this tank in person, and let me tell you it is amazing! The size of the colonies is huge, and most of them are only 2 years old!!!! The color is also outstanding! The system in the cellar is also great to see.

The fish on the other hand are a story all together. Conspic, Pair of personifer, pair of xanthopunctatus, femininus, carmabi, septentrionalis, the list goes on....

I sincerely hope your plans for Anampses neoguinaicus works out
Those would be a sight to behold!

Added to that Luc is a great, nice and helpful guy!

The sand is around 4 till 8 cm.

I never clean it,i have around 10 wrasses that sleeps into the sand,furthermore there are around 30 starfish into the sand too clean it.
In the old two meter tank i cleaned it once after two years and it was a wast of time

Thanks Kinlayan

The calcium reactor is a Dastaco,this reactor is build by a shopkeeper who is became a good friend of mine.
The good thing about this one is is very easy too deal whit,the only thing you have to do is turn the button on the right number and it does the rest,so more kh and ca turn it higher.
After a while you now your system and when the frag tanks are filled whit frags in the cellar i need more kh and ca so i put it on 9,when the frags are gone i come around whit stand 7,so easy after a while.

Once a year i clean it and refresh everything,around two times a year i put some fresh calciumcarbonaat on top of the old one,in total it burns around 30 kilo of calciumcarbonaat every year.

When the frag tanks are really full i sometimes put some extra Balling salt's into the system.
