PowderBlue Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Any input on what to do next is appreciated, it's my first actual reef tank. Taking it kind of slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saltygobie Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Only reason I asked is I will be starting my 40 gallon breeder build thread and I was still up in the air with the skimmer but I like ur setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowderBlue Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 No problem salty, it pulls a lot of gunk out and is easy to tune, I'd recommend it to anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberlee Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Just love your tank (good taste too), but I am a big fan of the 40B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowderBlue Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Thank you kimberlee. I had a 90 last but an ich breakout kind of ruined it for me for a year or so. But the 40 breeder is by far my favorite size! Looks awesome and is easy to maintain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowderBlue Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Nice looking tank. Just wondering do you think that eel will eat the cromis? I really love the gsp lawn you have growing on the left side of the tank =) He hasn't yet! Lol. But he's extremely tame, just hides most of the time, he even let's my cleaner shrimp clean him! Thank you also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
