Greenmako Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 Done having kids, now back into reefing! My wife and I tried to get back in over a year ago but had a DSA tank crack after only a short time with water in it, after a long time trying to get a replacement tank we ended up buying a new tank from another manufacturer. This is also the first time that we will be running a reef without metal halides and vho's, instead we will be running two Radion's.March 7th new tank arrives and we get it setup with the help of my friend John.My wife then got to aqua scapeTank starts to cycleOnce tank cycled we started adding fishThe tank we ordered only came with a steel stand as we wanted to have something a little modern but rustic. We built the doors for the tank ourselves so that they would be flush as possible between the steel frame.We started slowly adding coral. Below are some shots of what corals we have thus far. These photos are my first attempt at shooting under LED's. I don't have the white balance dialed in yet but will eventually.Meteor shower and a frag from my old tankPretty ScolyRic 1 Quote
