Ron`s 120 Reef (redrover)
 
I thought id start a thread to show the progress of a friend of mines tank.

He`s done an excellent job of stocking, maintanence and husbandry here and it shows.

The tanks an all glass 120, with a custom back overflow and sump.
The main system pump is a Dart that also feeds an integrated refugium and H&S skimmer.

Additional current is provided by a Vortech, and a Tunze wave-box.

Lighting is dual H/O t-5 54w , and 2- 250w D/E`s in lumenmax reflectors, mounted on adjustable hangers.

The front of the Cabinet has a opening cut out of the right hand door to get a full view of the integrated refugium.

Ozone is dosed, but he`ll have to fill you in on it.

Heres some pics he gave me of it...ill see if he can update us with some more.

Yes, super nice! :cool: How long has the tank been setup? It has that "super clean look" to it :) (ie. no coraline in the corners ;) )

Thanks Delphinus
 
Tank has been up and running about 8 months.
Clean glass every second day [ brush and scrapper ]
Don't care for coraline on the glass, how long this will last I don't know??

I don't really care for the coraline on the glass either, do you want to come over and clean my glass? I tried to keep the back as well as the front clean on my tank and it lasted all of 2 weeks :redface:
Very nice tank by the way :biggrin:
