I have been thinking of setting up a scrubber, as well, to offset the PH dip of running a calcium reactor. BRS sells color changing media...its pretty spendy, so hopefully it lasts a long time. My only concern is limiting my skimmers air draw.

Congrats on the new tank! I'm looking forward to following this one! Can you share some other specs such acrylic thickness, bracing, overflow, etc??? Also, what type of equipment you plan on using?

I went with 21" tall on my tank...I wish I would have went with 18"! My stand is 37" tall so the top of my tank is sitting at 58", I'm 6'4" with long arms and its still a pain to get to the bottom. It also creates that much more space to fill up with coral.

Can't beat it for $10! Treat it good and it will turn into a very nice coral!

Looks to be a tri-color of some sort. I don't think its Tyree Tri-Color though, tyree is more of a solid puple. That looks more like the ORA Tri-Color. I could be wrong though.

Ryan, thanks for the corals! They look great! You have a nice looking tank as well! Nice meeting you!

How long have you had them? What do you feed them? How often do you feed them? So far I have tried thrown in a variety of "samples" to see what they like. They all 3 have ate everything I fed them so far...Mysis, Cyclopeeze, and ORA Glo Pellets, & Spectrum Thera +A pellets. These fish LIKE TO EAT!

Almost ever LFS in the area has a used one for sale right now.

Well, I spent the morning fishing my Potters out. Took about an hour, and I had to take a lot of my corals & rock out of my tank, but I finally got it. I used 2 nets to corner it between the side of the tank and a rock. I traded it it at OIAB if anyone is interested in a very health, great eating, beautiful potters angel. It was hard to see it go, its such a great looking fish! I traded it in towards a trio of Bicolor Anthias.

I skim on the wetter side...I feel like I pull a lot more waist out of the water when its on the wetter side. This is a weeks worth. I empty it every Sunday. If I go slightly wetter, it will fill up in a couple days.

I'll take the the larger of the Superman & Pokerstar...

I'm in! I'M with Brad, lets keep it to 5 people ;-)

I got a hitch hiker of orange cap from Brad and couldn't bring my self to dispose of it so I decided Im going to grow it together with a green & a purple mont cap. If anyone has either one (preferably both so I only have to make one trip) I would love to get a frag of them! I'm in the Portland area...

If I were you, I would start do the following since your TWV is roughly 150g: Week 1: 1.2ml daily Week 2: 1.8ml daily Week 3: 2.4ml daily Week 4: 3.0ml daily I would check Nitrates every week once you get the LaMotte Test Kit. I would increase the vodka every week by .6ml until you start to see the Nitrates drop. Once you get to zero nitrates, I would cut the vodka in half. ONCE AGAIN, this is only what I would do. Please read the link Mike provided, and the link I provided and make you own determination on what you should dose. It is also important that you are extremely consistent with it. It's something that you have to dedicate to, its not something you should do for a month then slack off on.
