    Re: Some of my 90G Coral Reef Pics

    Wow you really have a nice tank. What lighting are you using, t5 or halide? Also what type of skimmer. Your zoas are very nice, as for prices ive read about some zoa morphs going for as much as 300 a polyp! Haha, i have a nano reef i should post pics of here...

    I miss my dads tank now he had a beautiful setup and we had just bought him living sand and our clown fish had mated and laid eggs and my dad bought a sea apple and it poisoned the entire tank cause it got sucked into the filter cause it strayed to close x.x

    We weren't meant to fly,
    All we can do
    Is try not to fall.

    Very nice pics. I have always wanted to set one up, but figured it was too hard to maintain.

    Re: Some of my 90G Coral Reef Pics

    It can be a hastle to maintain in the begining because theres alot of tests you have to do (Nitrate, Nitrite, Ammonia, PH, etc..... and if your big on Corals your Calcium, Magnesium, and Alkalinity need to be spot on. Its definitely challenging but thats what makes it fun

    After you have everything in check, pretty much your water changes with a good brand of salt will replenish everything. You go thru times though when you hate it like when your Nitrates get to high and you start getting red slime. Usually from overfeeding or not enough flow....

    If your looking to get into it I would strongly advise reading as much as you can for like 4-6 months. There is alot you need to know about keeping Saltwater Aquariums

    I use T5's but will be switching over to LED's. The Skimmer is from My Reef Creations and it is the MRC-II capable of handling up to 300 Gallons. My take on it is to get a skimmer double of what you have.

    I also have a refugium with Cheato that helps elimnates Nitrates. Trates are my worst enemy by far
