Thought I'd throw up a pics post...
Info-Tank is a 40g breeder with 20g sump and 30g refugium. Using Randy's 2-part recipe 1 for Ca and Alk consumption. Dripping kalk 24/7 at 2 tsp's per gallon. Magnesium additions added twice monthly. 1- 250w 10k Ushio and 2 55W actinic PC's. 6 maxi-jet 1200's on a wave timer for flow. Tank is barebottom.

Livestock-1 goldstripe maroon clown and a solar wrasse. Two skunk cleaner shrimp and about 10 snails for inverts. Mostly SPS but I do have a few LPS and clams.
Enjoy!

I love how you centered everything with the shading. Is there a term for that?

That's a nice looking tank, but it doesn't look anything like a 40 breeder from the front shot.

Works great. No problem with PH getting too high. i like to run a higher PH anyways. I shoot for 8.4 day and night but it is hard to achieve this time of year.

Really cool little tank you got there!

What Wavemaker do you have the MJ1200's on?

Just a wave timer strip. 1 side goes off for 20 seconds, then the other side for 20 and then all of them for 30 seconds..
