One year anniversary and Take down (PICS)

[dancewithethan]

Well, it has been one year now since my tank is up and running. However, I’m moving locally and will be taking this tank down and will be upgrading to 120 G. Before I do, I would like to post this thread for everyone to see my progress. I have been running softy and fish only tank for about 3 years and decided to give SPS a try. I have to say, I would never go back.

Specs:
Tank ~50 G
Lights 2x36 T5 plus 1x400 MH (AC bulb)
Lots of water movements by 1 tunze nano, tunze wavebox, and MP40.

I know, someone will eventually ask for this FTS so here it is.

Thanks Adrienne,

I have one Sally lightfoot, but she did not survive. maybe there is not enough algae for her in the tank.
