Hi all,

Thought I should share this one with you guys as well in addition to the Swedish forum.

I started this project in December 2010 so itīs still pretty new.
The tank is app 65 gallons (44x18x20") and I intend to run it fairly low tech.
I dont have any sump, instead I use a Deltec MCE600 skimmer hanging on the back of the tank.

Circulation is solved by 2 Hydor Koralia 4 streamers, each one of them moving 4600lt/h.
I also have an internal "quickfilter" for active carbon, this one gives 1500lt/h extra.

I just changed the light unit; from 4x39w T5 to one bigger unit containing 8x39w T5 instead.
Since then (app 3 weeks) I notice some good growth in my corals :bounce3:


I add some pics from start until now, just let me know if you want to know anything else :)
