thats a great looking tank!!! What kinda filtration are you using?

 

[FaviaFiend]

Almost none at all. i took the stock carbon filter and ripped out the sections and used it to hold filter floss and im running GFO and carbon in media bags in the middle chamber. No skimmer or sump, but wish i had the room for both.

Update

New aquascaping! also moved the frag rack for better access and aesthetics and really love the way it looks. Any thoughts or ideas on what to do next?

Shelf and New Light

Got a new LED and decided to mount it using a shelf then built a feux canopy to hide the lights and wires.

 

[FaviaFiend]

New, new, and more new.

Another new aquascape and many new corals to go with my new LED's. Tank is becoming more and more stable and everything is looking really healthy. Only thing left to do is finish my 40B build and transfer everything over!

What kind of LEDs did you get? And can you tell a huge difference in coral color?

 

[FaviaFiend]

I got an older model Eco Ray from a friend. The only major color difference i tell is that my stunner chalice was turning purple under the halides and now appears to be going green. but the main difference is the overall health of all my corals now that the temp stays between 77-79 F. I have polyps that have been open for a few days that haven't opened for a month and my acros have amazing PE now.
