Think about the snipersps bubblegum millie or the acid trip Millie. Probably 2 of my top 10 sps. You've already got 5. Lol

That aquascape looks great. Can't wait to see it wet and with all those sps on the rock.

Thanks man! I may add a bubblegum Milli if I find it a good spot. I forgot I want to add my PC Rainbow and PC Superman as well in that mix.

Got a 7-stage RODI system for a sweet deal! I'll be using Red Sea blue bucket salt with this system.
Looking at your RO/DI set-up. Do you have chloramines in your source water? Looks like you have 2 sediment filters, two carbon blocks or chloramine blockers and two DI cartridges (looks like the Spectrapure mixed bed resin combo. or MaxCap). I ask, because I am dealing with chloramines where I live and this is the way I was considering setting up my system. Thanks.

To tell you the truth, I don't know if if I have chloramines in my water source but I didn't want to take the chance. And you're correct, I'm using two BRS pre filters, two BRS carbon filters, the ones they promote for best chloramine removal, then 1 high capacity maxcap di cartridge and the last one is a maxcap silicabuster.

Hope this helps!

Here's the final aquascape! 40lbs of Tropic Eden Reefflakes have been added.
Heads up.....Red Sea has had major issues with the plumbing for the reefers (just google it). I proactively told them mine cracked and they shipped me a new set, just gotta show receipt. Now I have spares just in case!

Is that M1 a beast on this tank?
