120 tank 55 gallon sump with saltwater fish later soft corals
|
67g tank, 20g sump
7 fish. Heavily fed and stocked with coral.
Vertex 150 skimmer.
2 aqueon heaters.
I don't own any of that stuff....
I use tap water.
Cheap Chinese lighting.
Coralife salt (a brand everyone seems to hate)
my ATO is me filling an ice cream bucket with tap water and a drop of prime dechlorinator and dumping that in my sump when the return starts to suck air and make annoying sounds.
I don't think I'd know how to use any of that other stuff even with reading all the posts on here lol
Once monthly 5-10 gallon water changes.
And my tanks been fine for 3 years. SPS, LPS, Softies, all grow fine. Sometimes a fish will randomly disappear, but that's happened twice I think with this group in the 3 years.
