alright guys finally getting my submission in last minute :p

this is my 45 gallon (60 gallong total water volume with sump) sps dominant tank. I dose the red sea reef foundation line and do weekly (mostly) water changes.

Spot feeding my corals a mix of reef nutrition products including oyster feast rotifeast as well as rods food coral food as well as KZ zeovit coral vitalizer food concentrate on a mostly daily basis

In the sump is an asm g2 skimmer and a lot of live rock as well as an aqua uv sterilizer

For lighting I run ATI T5 bulbs on a 6 bulb T5 fixture. bulbs are purple plus, coral plus, blue plus, and actinic

koralia 1050 and rio 20hf for pumps and flow

Heres an FTS

Great tank Reza... looks larger than a 45 gallon. Nicely done your scape makes it look much larger.

hey guys it seems to be a touchy subject on the other contest so I want your approval for this one. I completely respect your wishes and will eliminate myself for being half a day late. Let me know if you guys feel that I am eliminated or if you will let me pass.

However for anyone who wants to enter we will allow more time for people to pick up and post.
