ThePremiumAquarium Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Well I am new to this site, so I thought I would introduce myself with a few pictures. The tank is 90 gallons. It has a 40 gallon acrylic sump with a built in refugium. I use a dual pfo 400 watt metal halide ballast with 330 watts of vho actinic supplimentation. I recently added 4 blue lunar led's. I use an RPS 1000 as my protien skimmer and will hopefully be upgrading to an RPS 2000 in the near future. I believe that the more live rock and the more water volume the system has, generally the easier it is to care for. I do regular water changes of about 20 gallons about once every month or so and also test water parameters and chemical levels at that time. I have had this system up and running since June and have been upgrading regularly. Here is my tank I have a terrible addiction to zoanthids Here is one of my newest additions Here's a shot of the right side of the tank. Thanks for checking it out.

ThePremiumAquarium Posted November 15, 2006 Author Share Posted November 15, 2006 you got some nice zoos there. Are you selling those? They look like frags off your main colonies. Thanks vanz. They are going to be for sale or trade in a week or two. I am waiting for the frags to really get happy and would like them to start budding some new polyps before I trade them. If you are interested in a trade let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePremiumAquarium Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 The pictures really don't show the true beauty, but these are some of my zoas. Next time I will shrink the shutter size a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronjunior Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I don't know what it is, but there's something about the zoos I like the most. Love your color selections. Need to get some of those! Working on growing corals in my tank to make a nano for my wife's classroom and it will probably be full of zoos and rics. Love them both.
