Very nice. What type of lights are you running? Looks like the tank is quite dim.

4 actinics VHO and a dual 175 watts 10K. I'm going to upgrade to a dual 400 watts after I can find a buyer for the existing setup.

Thanks everyone, especially Moga. I'm still learning and trying to improve day by day.

For future reference....Moga has a few threads on here with items for sale. You guys should really check his corals out. Moga's corals are incredible and rare. I had the honor of owning a few of his prize possessions.

Thanks you everyone....

Tank dimensions are 5ft long, 3ft wide, and 2ft high.

Equpiments: Light is stated above, but hope to upgrade when I find a buyer. Should you know of anyone who may be interested, please LMK. 2 GenX Mak4 use a return from 65 gallons sump thru 2 1" SS. ETSS Pro 800 Protein Skimmer and a GEO calcium reactor. That's it no other/additonal equipment.

Changing subjects...sorry not looking to steal the thread! How do you like your GEO reactor. I have a Korallin and is really PMO!

tom obrecht,

I'm content with it. Haven't had any problems, but I've only had it for 4 months.

I see all these abreviations all the time, but don't know what they really stand for....like PMO, IMO, bump, and ttt?

Stonecold,

That is a beautiful tank.

The 5x3x2 diamension is great. I was wondering, where did you get your hands on such a tank?

Thanks!

Thank you, Menmito. I bought it used a year ago from a local. I've lost touch with him, so I wouldn't be able to find out where he actually had it made. All he told me was that he had it custom made. Sorry for the lack of info.:-(

Just Beautiful!

That is an amazing tank for such low lighting and relatively minimal equipment! Just wait till you get the 400s burning over that beauty!

Thanks again. Actually, the tank is pretty well lit. Maybe not enough penetration towards the bottom tho. Both pictures were taken with the flash being covered/off. The tank is kinda messy too...with those softies just laying in the front. Trying to sell those, but I will try to take some better pictures of the tank after those softies are sold.
