Default My 180g Mess...

Pnoy's 180g

Specs:
180g AGA with modern stand
3x250w 12k Reeflux on a Maristar lighting with 4x39w T5
Bluewave Ballast
HSA MTC 1000 Skimmer on Iwaki 55rt
2x Tunze 6100 with single controller and y cable
2x Icecap Vortech
Litermeter III - Alk and Ca ( using Randy' s 2 part)
Sequence Marlin Uno for return
30 gallon sump sitting inside the 100g Rubbermaid
Pinpoint Ph monitor


Fish
Blue Hippo
Foxface
Tomini Tang
Maroon clown
3 Green Chromis

I used to have a 75g and 120g and decided to just get a bigger tank which is my 180. My tank for almost a yr of running have so many ups and downs and throughout the course I almost threw the towel and give up reefin.. The recent upgrade on my plumbing, aquascaping and movin my 100g sump through another spot has done nothin but headaches .. lost some sps and some I managed to frag and zoas suffered also which until now I don't know what else could have gone wrong....I am still seeing some stn on my acros which I am planning on leavin my tank alone and let it fix its own problem....So here are some pics of my tank and some corals..

FULL TANK SHOT AS OF LASTNIGHT...( king of magfloat )...





Plumbing





Basement ( sump )



Skimmer







I will update this for coral pics.. and yes as you can see I have 4 eggcrate on my display tank which makes it look really messy.

Thanks
Steve

Nice set up Steve. I think the Magfloats will cover the glass in the future.

Nice set up Pnoy. I likes the clean look under the cabinet. I think you should get a couple more magFloats. LOL
