Moving along nicely. 2 yellow tailed blue damsels, one peach damsel (2nd peach got beaten up and died). A bi-color blenny, and as of today, a small Hollywood Stunner frag, and a small red monti cap frag. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Why would you use water from the old tank? 99.9% of the bacteria is on/in the rocks and sand. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Ok, so here is the living, running 50 that I have put together!

Now I have to figure out why my system is losing almost a gallon a day to evaporation. Not running the 150W MH, and even the PC is only on a couple hrs a day. Cabinet is fully enclosed with a few small openings for cords, etc. Temp is stable at 77.8... Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

It's baffled with about 15 pounds of rock between the return pump and the rest of it...

Added 2 yellow tailed blue damsels, 2 peach damsels and a sand sifting star on the 4th... All happy as can be and now the sand is clean!

You got addicted...

Yesterday, the nitrates were about 100. Tonight, 0. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

The tank has cleared, dosed Microbacter7 to speed things up. Tonight, the tank looks perfect... and I see life. And here is a shot with just room lights, and then with the PC on (36W 50/50)

All running, cloudy right now. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

I do have a handful of 1W cool white and 1W blue LED's I got free as samples from a manufacturer a couple years ago... Next project is guessing where they may be at LOL

so I'm almost 2 years behind LOL

Cool! Appreciate it! Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Very happy with the skimmer! Thanks again! For lights starting off with what came with the tank. 150W 20, 000K MH and a 32W 50/50 power compact. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

So, got it plumbed and wired... Even have my Reef Central Hydra controller in it! Even installed a GFCI outlet for the system!

I'll be there all day...

When I had my 180, I spot fed the mix. Once I get my 50 up and running, I'll be spot feeding again! Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Best food I found that all the Zoas/Palys liked was a mix of Phyto Feast and Oyster Feast.

Well, now that we have settled down in San Pedro, I am starting a new tank. picked up a used acrylic 50 with a nice cabinet Sunday, and a free red sea berlin skimmer tonight. Tomorrow picking up a used sump! Heres a pic of the tank Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
