Thanks, its been running for a year now. Its a custom built tank that I ordered thru IPZ and was built in Van.

This tank started this March. It's been through a lot in such short time. Tank moved, overflow replaced, corals lost and algae issues. A month and half ago, the tank finally got back on track.
It's a 45 gal with 15gal sump. In my sump I run bubble magus skimmer, carbon and calcium reactor. I run a water line straight from my RO/DI to the tank for ATO. I dose VSV and MB7 daily.

Beautiful tank Wisesam. What kind of stand is your tank on? Is it custom built?

I didn't build that. I bought it used together with the tank. I think it's built by SeaStar as that's what the tank is made by.
It is actually an open stand. I added the panels to close it up myself.

Hi,

Thanks for the comment! I'm running a 250W Radium off a Blue Wave HQI ballast.

Cheers,

Here's my recently re-aquascaped 24 x 24 x 20 (~50 gallons) tank. After re-aquascaping things I lost a couple frags and have managed to bleach out a few as well. The color and brightness in this photo aren't very accurate despite my best efforts to adjust them in Aperture. I'm going to practice with this camera today to improve my photo taking skills and get a more accurate rendition but the T5s complicate things.

Here's a pretty accurate representation of the tank without the oversaturation in the previous pic. Colors are accurate but some of the lighter colored corals higher up in the tank are overexposed.

I put 60 because I don't have it filled all the way to the top.
There is only 24x24x24 inches of water. I guess it really is a 75 though.:smile:
