Mike, (and wife)
A very inspiring tank to say the least! Thanks for a great narrative. You mentioned that you clean and treat your filter socks, can you elaborate?

do you feel the upgrade to 12 k reeflux was a big factor in your great colors.

mike, this is definitely one of the greatest sps tanks in existance! the colors and large colonies are amazing, congrats on the TOTM honors .
just a few questions from me: do you clean or vacuum your ssb during maintenance? do you have nitrate, phosphate or ORP readings? i'm truly in awe of it!! thanks, tim |

No nitrates or phosphates with my test kits..There has to be something in the system but the test kits do not register anything...My orp with out ozone is around 230 -245.W/ ozone My magic # is 300 to 330..If I go any higher on the orp my corals start to fade....I hope this helps.. Thx's Mike |

Hey mike its andrew from scott's pet, amazing tank. You got some real monster corals in there, very nice fish too, love the tangs.
It's really astounding how you've built this great setup and I really admire your passion and strong hard work that you put into this hobby. I hope one day to be in a situation like you are, Utah is gonna have the best coral selection ever! See you soon! |

One of the most amazing tanks I have ever seen! I have been eagerly awaiting the TOTM article since following your post in the sps forum.
Don't take this the wrong way but I think the coralline algae on the front panel distracts from the beauty of this tank. |

Gee, if you're moving to Utah I can come and see it.

you may missed my reply I am really interested in the skimmer changes that you made since it's the heart of the system and it may be a factor for choosing a skimmer

I noticed a series of fans built onto the back of the hood and on the side. Do you have these wired to come on with the lights, or are they on a serperate timer?
Nice tank, by the way. |
