How 'bout it CVRC - let's see those reefs

jmccown · 01/08/2009, 01:06 PM

Being a newbie to the reef scene but several years around the FOWLR end of the hobby I'd like to start a thread for the CVRC dedicated to reef tanks. To start the thread let me throw up some pics of my new reef tank that is still being established. It is a 150g reef with VHO lighting, 55g sump/refugium, Euroreef skimmer and K4's for circulation. Has a few fish but not heavy stocked. This is my first real reef tank and it scares me to death, lol. Please excuse the algae on the glass.

Ron, recognize those big chromis? They are two of the ones you guys had at the shop forever. They lay eggs every other week, never had any luck with them hatching though.

So whats up with the algae on your glass?

No really, your tank looks great.

So keeping with the spirit of posting pictures, here is the only aquatic life I have at the moment.

A few ricordia in the corner of my tank. I am always looking for unusual color combos if anyone has them, and interested in selling or trading let me know.
