Just replaced 57 Watt Ultra UV light bulb. I did buy the 80 dollar factor one. Not the 25 dollar knock off. I don't know if there is a difference. This is bulb number 3 going on year 2.5 . Wow time flys....

40 Gallon water change and everybody is looking good.

Want and need more fish. Thinking of adding these 3.

Black Cap Basslet.
Niger Trigger
Red Hawkfish.

I be leave they will fit in with the currant crew. Probably go fish hunting this weekend. That's always fun.

Trigger may (eventually) go after the basslet. All the niger triggers I've seen at my LFS are evil/mean as f***.

Yikes - do you have filter socks / floss before the skimmer chamber? Probably consider putting something to block these critters in the future.

Super nice setup!

Yes. Unfortunately snails can crawl anywhere. I think they are breading in the sump...

Its been a while. See reefer 250 thread for more details.

Getting ready to add 3 fish new fish as soon as LFS has them all and they quarantine for a couple of weeks. Realy cool of him to do that for me. He always has.

I only have 14 fish atm and the tank has never looked better. ORP low 400s. I figure its best to add multiples at a time. Less chance of one fish getting picked on as they do.

Cuban Hogfish
Nassau Tang
and Chocolate Tang...
