Maybe I missed it, but what skimmer are you using in your set-up? As I am looking to upgrade my skimmer for my 58 gallon.

I like the CR that you made. They look well crafted.

The best picture I have now is the skimmer running on my test tank:

DSCN3758

Not sure I showed pictures of the CR (calcium reactor) I am using but here it is anyhow:

m20

I've got to be a little careful as to not violate any rules here but you can send me a PM if you need more info drouner.

We can call this my 10 month update since that is when the first corals hit the water

10 months ago:



Today, and everything in this tank was from a frag, I counted 64 different corals in the tank as of today
