    93 gallon marineland cube that is SPS dominated with modest live stock. Lighting provided with a 250w metal halide 14k bulb and t5s for actinic dusk/dawn effects.
    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1354925720.167633.jpg Filtration is provided by an aqueon proflex model 3 with a bubble magus NAC 6. Every thing is controlled by and neptune apex controller.
    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1354925664.567981.jpg Alk, Cal and Mag are the only additives uses and I also use carbon and Gfo as filter media. This tank has been running for 3 months but are the contents from a 120 gallon that I shut down when I moved.

    I really dig that overflow cover. I may have to try that for my overflows. Looking good. How long has this been up?

    This tank has been setup for three months but all the live rock, corals, etc are from a 120 gallon I shut down. I moved from a house where I a had a whole room that was just for my fish tank to a townhouse. I am using a 14k mogal Phoenix bulb.

    I made the cover from clear acrylic and painted the top black. I made the overflow after my premium Picasso clown decided to pull a nemo and jump
    Into my overflow one night.
