wow wow wow. That is my style of tank. I love the slate. You just inspired my tank, I wanted to do a facade around mine, and I think the slate looks really great.

Very nicely done. I love the rockwork.

Wow, excellent work! I love the RK2 panel in the front. As nice as your tank is though, I dig your front loading dryer more, MmmMmm...colorful laundry room :p

Hi!

What size koralia's are you using? Any further specs of your equipment?

Your tank looks awesome! :D

[sanababit]

well im using 2 korallia #3, and a quiet one 4000 return pump, an octopus 150 recirc skimmer, 8 bulb of 54w t5ho fixture, phosban, carbon, denitrifier runing 24/7, 30 gal sump with cheato, 100# ls, 60# lr.

heres the latest photo i have, notice the coralline algae has spread like crazy

So after one month from firing up your tank (your last post was 1-8-2008), you have some very good Coraline Algae growth. So I have to ask...scripps or RO/DI? Calcium Reactor or Two-Part Dosing, Kalkwasser, purple paint? Your circulation is obviously good to aid in that type of growth. Curious minds (like mine) would like to know. And by the way, your tank ROCKS!

my thoughts exactly, really great looking tank.

Well i will post a new photo later today and give you all the equipment i am using, btw i removed all coralline cause it was taking over the tank and it looked purple, washing out the coral colors;)

I have moved a little from softies and lps to sps which you will see some frags scattered around the tank.
