Filtration:=
Filtration is provided by a ASM G5 skimmer with Two Sedera 9,000. Biofiltration is accomplished with 85 lbs. of live rock and 240 lbs. of base rock on its way of become some nice live rock. I also A 30-gallon refugium is also used for filtration with about 20 lbs. of live rock, and also contains Chaetomorpha, which help with nutrient export.

Circulation:=
Water is returned to the display tank by a Dolphin 1200 internal pump pushing 1200gph to the display tank. For additional flow I use 3 Seio 1500, a Seio 820.

Great looking stuff Lonnie.. Can you get a closer pic of your power panel and maybe give me some idea how you have it running i.e. circuit breakers etc. etc. I ask because I see that you have two orange plugs coming from the back of you panel and connecting to a single outlet.

Thanks
Arlo

Careful everybody, if he invites you over and is only serving "dark beer" from a tap that leads behind the bar....well, you know where it's coming from. :eek1:

Looks really nice Lonnie. How do you like that powder brown? Sweet fish, would love to have one.

The tank looks great! Where did you get that flower anemone? I rarely see colorful ones for sale locally.

Oh my that smell is something else.... I have a bathroom down stairs, and I leave it covered and dump it in, and then quickly flush.. Wow everyone start yelling upstairs what is that smell!! I have learned not to do it around dinner time :D

I will have to get a closer pic, don't have one off hand. I made this for my 75 gallon tank that had to circuits coming from the breaker box so each side was on a different breaker. Since then I have moved and On this system I have 3 circuit's running to the new tank, and this panel is only running on one Circuit because I'm only running My Skimmer, heater and return pump.

He is great not quite as colorful as the Powder Blue.. But not as hard to take care of either. He is only about 4" The orange Shoulder is 7-8" long. I'm trying to get my hands on a 2-3" Male Blue Cheek/throat Trigger If anyone has seen one Local let me know.
