I understand your whole DSB issue so I'm not going to raise a question about that, but why only a couple of corals? Do you think it looks more natural? I really like the low rock work. If you ever decide to do an acropora domonate tank it would look great, but then again I dont think you find thoese where you live huh!? |

Yeah. There's no acropora anywhere to be found in Jerel's front yard. LOL

Thanks Greg you know how to make a guy feel like an @. For some reason when he has his TOTM I though he was in a cooler region. Any way's I know that he wouldn't collect illegally .

Ok I just redid my new reef with a bare bottom but after a few weeks decided to add a 1/2" of sand to could help protect the bottom glass from rock falls or plain clumsyness and be able to place a couple of corals on the bottom.
Read question what is starboard and where do you get it at? Thanks Gregg |

The corals I had in the tank are back at work, they are fine. As the tank gets older and more stable, I will slowly add them back to it. But not right now. Quote:

That's cause you have that dirty, stinking, algae scrubber tank of yours.
(disclaimer - Doug's tank is spotless, I'm kidding him) |

I have been wondering how much you have limited your bio capacity also?

To heck with the bio-capacity. LOL I'm taking it out before it has a chance to sit there and fester. That's the whole idea.

Looks great Bomber...
How long was it before you started to have algae problems? Have you considered a stand alone refugium? Just curious, Ryan |

Hey bomber, was your dsb composed of SD type substrate? It look alot courser. Do you have ant concernd with detritus build up underneath the panels or did you silicone around them before laying them down? I have to say the long thread about DSB you were involved in put a little damper on my 480 gallon refugiam, buy sine I have it up and running well see what happens.

and nope, that's anouther bandaid. I'm removing detritus now before I need all those bandaids. |

There will be so little detritus under the panels, it just won't matter. I'm sure there's much more on the rocks. |

Looks neat Jerel!
Did you go with 50/50's or aquasuns? It looks like 50/50's with a hint of MH |

Great tank!
Do you still have that awesome looking fan-like gorg that I always drooled over? I have tried and tried to find one like it, but no luck.

I'm not saying that starboard is a bad idea at all... looks very interesting!
but I have a feeling crap will creep under the panels- it is much more of an anaerobic enviornment than your rock is... |
