120gal mixed predatory reef tank
Here is my tank that I have been running for a little more than 2 years.
The display tank is 2'x2'x4' 120gal, the sump is a 140gal stock trough, and I have a 50 gal frag tank running off of that as well. Total system has about 270 gal of water less what is taken up by the 200 lbs of liverock. Equipment: AquaMedic Oceanlight 36" 2x250W 13K Giesemann HQI and 2x39W T5 Giesemann Actinic+ Precision Marine Bullet 2 Skimmer with Iwaki 55 pump Precision Marine 422 Calcium Reactor with aquariumplants.com CO2 Regulator and Milwaukee pH controller Oceans Motions SS Compact with Little Giant 1300gph return pump Mag 12 running a spray bar behind the rocks Phosban reactor for carbon DSB in a bucket in sump 20gal fuge in sump with various macro algae Tunze Osmolator for auto top off and DIY Kalk reactor Livestock: Volitan Lionfish Snowflake Moray Eel Purple Tang Copperbanded Butterfly Tomatoe Clown big Sebae anemone 5 Tridacnid clams Green Death Brittle Star Tiger Tail cucumber 12 SPS 11 LPS 6 Softies Before anyone else does I'll say it: the lionfish could use a little more swimming room and my sump looks like Frankenstiens creation.

I've had problems with my Purple Tang nipping a clam at least twice but he usually leaves them alone. I've had to move several corals into another tank or just to a different location in the main tank because of the Tang picking on them. I've seen him bite at one of my acan, an open brain, some yellow zoanthus, anthelia, kenya tree coral, and an oulophyllia... I also blame him for the recent decline in health of a wall hammer. My frag tank is full of coral that I cant keep in my main tank because of the tang... Oh and my tomatoe clown hates xenia. If there is any xenia in my main tank she will shred it so I only have it growing in the frag tank.
