Looking good! I see that you have the Tek Lights. How many and what kind of bulbs are you using?

Livestock:

1. One spot yellow fox face
1. Flame angel
1. Orchid dotty back

2. Long fin "Kaudern's" cardinals
2. Scarlet skunk shrimp

A beautiful pulsating Xenia, 2 toad stools, 1 orange disc (who said they can't live on live rock...just look at the beauty in the middle of the tank), 1 rubber tree, a few other smaller corals and 35 snails to do the clean up.

I like the aquascaping.

Just remember to keep that xenia in check.

Nice tank, what is your flow set up? Is that one PH with two outlets, or 2 separate PHs?

Do you mean actinic or just blue? I also have the 4 bulb config.

What about the specific bulb manufacture and type. I also have the 4 bulb config. and its time for me to get some new bulbs. I like your color spectrum so some more info would be great!

A little photography help, try changing the white balance on you camera to get the blue out of your photos. Otherwise great looking tank!

Great looking tank! I too have a problem with my pictures looking too blue... I'm sure it's me, the operator not the camera. ;o)

How much rock is that?

No equipment pics because other then the pump and UV sterilizer there really isn't any...it's an EcoSystem. The refugium is pretty cool though but in a picture all you'd see are plants:)

About 45 LBS. Lucked out when I got it from LFS they just got a huge shipment of Fiji rock that same day so we had the pick of the litter.

If you look close you'll see two large caves the biggest in the center the smaller to the left of the tank. The center cave is really cool because the rock ascends to it's highest point above it so it's really very dramatic.

Where did you get those eductors? They look to be just the right size for what I'm looking at for my tank.
