Reef (30 gal) – Retired
by admin on Mar.02, 2009, under Reef (30 gal) - Retired
INACTIVE
This is my 8 month old LPS & SPS 30 gallon hex reef tank. I use Reef Crystals salt & RODI for weekly 15% water changes. I recently switched from Instant Ocean which had a lower calcium content.
- I recently began dosing calcium in this tank and have seen an explosion of coraline algae growth.
- Remora Protein Skimmer – Cleaned weekly-biweekly & get nice dark skimmate.
- There’s a 2.5 gallon HOB CPR refugium that is home to live rock, bristle worms, tons of pods, brittle starfish, a mushroom colony, nassarius snails and chaeto which is used to export nitrates and phosphates. The lights run opposite the DT to help stabalize PH.
- 150 Watt Viper MH Clamp-style lamp (15k)
- Powerbrite LED lights
- Several Koralia pumps burried in rock work & elsewhere.
Inhabitants include
- Fish- Ocellaris Clown, Pajama Cardinal, Zebra Bar Goby, Yellow Watchman Goby
- Inverts- Blue-legged Hermit Crabs, Unidentified Crab, Emerald Crab, Nassarius Snails, Stoma Snails, Bristle Worms, Brittle Star Fish, Feather Dusters
- Corals- Frogspawn, Hammers, Palys, Zoas, Polyps, Clove Polyps, Ricordea Mushroom, Trumpet Coral, Monti’s, Acros, Acans & more…
