Lately my tank has looked more like a eggcrate seminar than a reef tank. So I am moving up.
I am moving my 20g High tank to a 50g Breeder style tank (36x18x18).
As of right now I am going to stick with most of my equipment for this upgrade, which cosists of
50+ lbs of live rock (in tank, and some cooking in a container)
Remora pro skimmer with a mag3 and a skimmer box
3 power heads with a small mod for flow (not the MJ stream flow).
3-4 inches of live sand.
250w DE 14k MH light (I will probably swith this out for a T5 system in the future).
live stock
2 anemones, a sebae and a LTA (the sebae will be traded off soon).
2 clowns (one black ocellaris, and one true perc)
3 hermits (left over)
frogspawn, zoas, and SPS.
-------------------------------------------
Progress so far:
I've purchased the 50g and spray painted the back black. The stand is still in the works. I plan on picking up a mitre saw to finish up the stand this weekend. Woo Hoo!
-------------------------------------------
My intentions for this tank:
I want to create a display tank and actually place frags of my zoas on rocks to grow out. I want to make one rock a PE rock with various PE zoas so that when I look at it under the moonlights it looks like a bunch of green eyes looking back at you. I currently have 3 types of PEs but I hope to increase this supply with time.
Updates coming soon.
