100 gallon LeeMar with corner overflow. This tank has been set up for just short of three years. The tank is sitting on a custom metal stand and light rack. I am running a hybrid T5 led setup. 4 X 54 watt with 3 Blue Plus and a single Coral Plus. 64 3 watt Crees with a variety of different color temps. Reef Keeper Lite controls sunrise and sunset, dual heaters, float for ATO, JBJ 1/10 chiller, and a fan. For filtration I am running an ATB 840 with a Sicce pump, Recirculating bio pellet reactor, small amount of GFO, and a refugium lit by an Ebay black box led on reverse light schedule . Flow is handled with a Mag 7 on the return, MP40, and dual Tunze 6055s.

Fish list:

3 yellow Tangs
Tomini Tang
Purple Fire Fish
Melanuras Wrasse
Male Leopard Wrasse
Male Scotts Fairy Wrasse
Pair Yellow Coris Wrasse
Potters Angel
Domino / Midnight Clown Pair

As for the corals, I am horrible with names. Green and red Digi. Frogspawn, pink hammer, and torch. Various polyps. Green Slimer, Setosa, Acans, Blue Stag, pair of rainbow Nems, and a Birdsnest.

Hope you enjoy.

How strong do you have your pumps on? I'm having a hard time figuring how much flow to have in my mixed reef. I have the flow cranked up for the Sps now but I notice my my hammers, torches and Goni don't open as much with such high flow.

Your right. I was starving the tank. I actually took off the bio pellets for a while. I just put them back on. But only 1/3 of a cup. We will see how it turns out.

Most of my LPS is at either end of the tank. They are out of the direct shot of the pumps.
