Just sharing some pics

[Cox]

Thought I'd throw a couple of pics at ya. Here's my 20H that's been running for about a year. I'm looking into starting another, either an AquaPod or BioCube, still have to read all the comparisons between them before I decide. Thanks to all who have helped me over the past year. Hope you enjoy.

Wow!

Can you post your weekly regiment to keep the tank and corals looking like that? Can yo also post your tank setup/ equipment?

VERY NICE

[Cox]

Thanks for the kinds words. Setup is as follows:
standard All-Glass 20 gallon high
~40 lbs CarribSea live sand
~30 lbs Florida aquacultered LR
Current USA Orbit 2x65W PC fixture
CPR AquaFuge PS w/surface skimmer box/~4" Kent substrate+~5 lbs. rubble LR
2x MaxiJet 900 powerheads (1 w/Hydor attachment)

I perform 5 gal water change once every 3-4 wks using Catalina real ocean water (from Petco). I'm partial to this since the tank's small enough that it doesn't break the bank to use it and it's much more convenient for me than having to mix my own.

Also, on a side note, I haven't been using the AquaFuge PS's protien skimmer for the past 4-5 months. It never really did work too well and it was just putting microbubbles into the tank. So far, I haven't seen any ill effects with going without a skimmer. My ultimate plan is to add a 10 gal sump and remove the AquaFuge. I have an AquaC Urchin in sump skimmer that's still in the box and ready to go. Now all I have to do is find some time to convert to the sump.

great tank

Really nice looking tank...

How long has it been setup?

Why are you choosing between the Aquapod and Biocube?

Ever look at the Finnex or the Aquacube?
Just curious....

Tank's been up for just over a year.....thanks for the heads up on the Finnex and Aquacube, I'm just starting to look around for an 'all in one' setup so I'll definitely check those out also.

Thanks. The starfish has actually been with me since day 1, it was a hitchhiker. Gotta be the coolest hitchhiker I've seen and I can't believe it made it through the beginning cycle. Here's a pic of it about 1 month into the cycle. Note the blue legged hermit next to it for size comparison. The hermit is about 1 inch so it gives it perspective on how small this guy was.

This pic was from about 2 months ago, so the starfish is about 11 months old (to me at least) in this pic. He's still growing. I'm still not fully sure exactly what type of starfish he is or how big he'll get.
