Matan
You have a perfect setup, good luck with it.
How easy is it to get SPS in Israel? I al located in Amman Jordan and have never seen an SPS at any of the 4 LFS we have, I do daily business with Israel and can get some frags if I get the directions
Thanks

[matan_grin]

this is not my tank..ohh i wish it was..
in the matter of getting SPS in Israel-
you can get them all the time,there is an import every week.
i sent you my phone number in PM-the next time you are in Tel Aviv area give me a call and i will be happy to show you where to get all the best corals in here.
Matan.

True that.

Matan,
What is the 5th fluid that is setup on the Grotech? I'm assuming the 4th is Magnesium.

[Gooli]

Wow...Lo rak atah. Gam ani kan b'Miami. Pashut mehamem. I must say, it is absolutley stunning. I was there with my girlfriend this past summer and I have never met anyone in the hobby in Israel. Maatn, where in Tel-Aviv do you live? I used to live there too. My family still does. I am hoping to go visit again in the summer of 2009. My girlfriend wants to live there. This summer we are going to California. Gooli, maybe we can come see your tank when we come to LA. If thats not imposing. :D I have lived in Miami for a long time, and i dont think that I met any Israelis that are into reef-keeping. The only one i know of is a guy that works with me and he only has a 55 gal freshwater that he set up about a week ago. I have seen another Israeli reefer on here somewhere. In fact, Matan, It might have been you. Have you posted another SPS tank from Israel? If you did, it was probably you.

[matan_grin]

wow a lot of israeli pepole ah?
i have sent you my phone number in PM so you can call the next time you are in israel and i will show you some good LFS.
i live in Ramat Gan,its a city realy close to Tel Aviv about 5 minuts drive and it has 5 LFS who handle salt water fish and corals..
by the way-i see pepole think this is my tank. it is not.
a friend of mine is setting up this project and i came to take some pictures. i am sure that if someone will come to the area there will be no problem to show him the yank..its a realy must see..
i have a 40G SPS tank..no where neer that monster tank.

the FW is very popular here and the SW is taking speed fast..
about the expensive part-you tell me-
i buy 12cm tall and wide acropora for 50$ most of the time..for the more nice and rare stuff you pay more but this is the price for most acros'
i think this is very cheap in comprisemant to the prices in the US

[adtravels]

does most of the stock come from the red sea and africa/ maldives?

[matan_grin]

not at all..red sea is outlaw and illegal to sell in israel.
most of the corals come from kenia and indonesia,sometimes from fiji.
the fish usually come from kenia hawai and indonesia.
if i remember right..:D

[Vili_Shark]

Pretty cool tank, I missed that thread.

I guess that now it is looking way better.

[Rickyrooz1]

Nice! The live rock is awesome. What are the tank dimensions?

[DiazE]

Very nice layout!

Where's that beautiful rock from?
What's the size of your sump?
:D

[an411]

[sanababit]

[TheBoogieMan]

[imcosmokramer]

Good work Matan

[Rhizo]

Dang sweet setup! How deep is the tank?

[DiazE]

Are there any picture updates on this build?

[rkb]

Very nice Matan-

How did the rock look after it cured out? From your pics it looked like it had lots of life on it. The system looks very well organized and clean- congrats. I really hope

[matan_grin]

[Nanook]

Cool:thumbsup:

[njfish77]

Whats he running on it? i see a kalk stirer, cal reactor, phos reactor, and a diesel skimmer, anything else?

[Faisal1976us]

amazing tank :)

[Vili_Shark]

Whats he running on it? i see a kalk stirer, cal reactor, phos reactor, and a diesel skimmer, anything else?

From what I know, Deltec nitrate filter, and weekly water change, which is making a major difference.

I hope M will post some pics soon.

[Stanley-Reefer]

That $$$$$ Deltec stuff sure does look solid!

What doser system is that?

[Vili_Shark]

That $$$$$ Deltec stuff sure does look solid!

What doser system is that?

Grotech TEC III and TEC IV

[Zuska]

hey how many gallons is this set up? and cant wait to see some pics of new stuff:)

[ReefTECK]

Yeah dude! Much agreed with everybody professing their support, great, gorgeous tank! And stellar equipment! Totally jealous.

I think you are going to need bigger bottles of alk, ca, and mg on that doser though. lol
