125gal...my first saltwater experience
Hello everyone. I've recently delved into the bottomless hobby that is reefkeeping. My 125 gallon tank has been up and running for roughly three months currently and I am very pleased with how it is coming along.
Currently the tank is occupied by two ocellaris clownfish, a yellow tang, and a sixline wrasse, all of whom are quite happy in their establishment. I also have a colony of GSP, a montipora, and two separate zoa colonies. The corals also seem to be doing well and are exhibiting growth. My tank is lit by three Hydra 26HD lights and is filtered with a 100 micron sock, Tunze 9012DC skimmer, and chaeto in a sump I designed using a 20 gallon long tank. I have several unidentified corals which came with my GSP colony which I would like to identify in the proper thread here if anyone can point me in the correct direction, as well as identifying my zoa color morphs? I'll continue posting pictures and updates here as I have time. Thanks in advance for any help or advice offered! Patrick |

Tank update time. My tank had an outbreak of dinoflagellates (identified via microscope) which has cleared up nicely and naturally over the past week. Coralline algae is continuing to show good growth but is very spotty. Montipora is showing rapid growth as are gsp and tubbs blue zoas (??? I think). I got 2 heads of Armor of God which are dividing. Mixed zoa frag is showing signs of growth but most of the polyps are not opening fully despite my best efforts.
Tank residents: 2 ocellaris clowns (typical and black variety) Yellow tang Sixline wrasse Diamond goby Various crabs and snails Montipora capricornis Zoa-blue tubbs? Zoa-various unidentified Armor of God paly GSP Patrick Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk |
