This is the cutting edge of reefkeeping IMO.

Just imagine if Joe Yaiullo had to rely on water changes alone!

I had to look up joe yaiullo with google..
Sorry ... but I am not that familiar with all the well known names and reputations.
20000 gallons is a quite impressive reef te maintain and joe is doing an excellent job.

The reeftank in rotterdam zoo (blijdorp) is not quite there yet. But phd Tim Wijgerde is doing his best to guide them to reproduce some decent results.

I do my own things and I'm not much of a reader. In fact i experiment a lot and most things I discovered were bij trail and error. I spend most reading time on chemistry schoolbooks i borrowed from my kids. Just to figure out what i needed to make it work.
I also enjoy writing my experiences for future reference.

Happy Reefing, GlennF

Tank looks good with the rescaping. I'm sure here was quite the SPS frag sale over there upon tanking some stuff down.

Your welcome,
I am happy , the fish are happy, the coral are even more happy.

In a few week/months i hope the tank will flourish even more.

Happy Reefing, GlennF

No shame in that at all ...
If you enjoy your tank, you should be happy. Get inspired and learn to move forward. That's what keep this hobby interresting.

Although I can handIe a car/cart quite wel, I can't compete with guys like lewis hamilton on track also😊.

I can learn a lot from his driving style although...

Hi Gleen. I have always been a big fan of your tanks and methods and I hope the very best with your new aquascape and future endeavors.

For now my only question is...

How often do you replace your bulbs? And other than your doser and power filter, what else do you run in your system?

Thank you...

Beautiful Glenn,
Looks like your fish don't need to take turns putting their faces in the water to breathe anymore
