![]() Very nice,
How do you keep it as clean as it appears. It is spotless! Front, back and sides! WOW! |

![]() Thanks for all of the comments:
Believe it or not I use tap water and I don't get any algae growth anywhere in the tank. I don't do major water changes anymore but I do clean the filter media I have in my sump every 3 days which takes out a lot of detritus before it has a chance to break down. I also clean my skimmer once a week and it’s a bit oversized for my tank so that helps. Every 3 weeks I will use a kent pro scraper on the back walls of the tank. It’s basically a big metal blade that scrapes off the coralline growth. I also dose a little bit of vinegar and vodka which I find really keeps my nutrients low, sometimes too low which is why some of the corals are a bit pale at the moment. |

![]() The last few pictures I will be posting for a while. I have to return the camera tomorrow so it will be a few weeks to a month before I post any new ones. Enjoy!

![]() Hello everyone, I have a quick update. I have sold the big Duncan colony in the top left of my tank to make room for some of the sps which are growing very fast. I do miss it already; most people only notice the LPS corals because the sps don’t move lol. I sold it for basically a $1 per head to a fellow reefer so hopefully it will have more space in his tank. In hindsight I should have frag it up but Duncan’s take a bit moiré time and skill to frag because of their dense skeletons.
I will post some more pictures soon; I just need to get a hold of a DSLR again. |

![]() I found one last picture of the tank before I moved it and as a consequence caused it to crash and kill all of my sps corals except one.

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds. ![]() |

![]() Thanks, I agree aquascaping is one of the most frustrating things i can think of. Everything gets knocked over, rocks never go exactly where you want them to, clown fish and damsels bite your hands lol.
