Now as for livestock tank will be mainly SPS & a few miscs.
My tank is almost fully dismantled I will be moving in 2 months & setting up a 4'x 4' x 4' I can not wait
As a farewell to my tank here is one of the last full tank shots taken

Marc is keeping a few corals for me & also Chris is holding a few colonies
(Thank you guys) until this tank is ready

We are using none to very little live rock in this tank it will be all Reef Ceramics to ensure minimal cycling time.
Zeovit system will be used therefore there is absolutely no need for UV ,OZONE or Phosphate adsorbers.List of additives to come soon
