You must have some nasty water for a reef tank. Lots of filters. How often do you change those? Where is the saltwater mixing tank, or the RO tank?

Nice clean setup. I really like the long hose to reach the tank. Gonna have to add that to my setup.

nasty water? One set is for mixing tank and other set is for RO only
You cant miss the mixing tank in the pic

This damage was well over a year ago and I rebuilt it and was compensated by FedEx

That's an awesome looking RO setup.
Wish I could have something this organised haha. Maybe in time my setup will evolve but I think I need to get a plumber out to add a tap connection to the garage so I can get something set up in there!

I just love the Naso tangs! Love those lips! Maybe someday I will have a tang large enough.

The new Ice Cap scrubber I got just working like a champ and keeping nitrates down

 

[A_CoupleClowns]

Looks like it’s working great.

Is that the medium sized Ice Cap scrubber?

 

[Naekuh]

i think your not suposed to scrub all the algae off, and leave some of it, otherwise you need to go though the break in cycle all over again, and its not as point on with the amount it pulls. ?

how do you like that ATS tho?
I heard a lot of mix reviews about it, but the price on that compared to the other brand keeps me looking at it everytime i get bored and have the itch to buy something new.

Plenty of hiding and my fish are added in order of aggression- with the most aggressive added last

In your experience, what is the Tang order of aggression?

Is there a Tang you are holding out for as the last one you will add?

I pretty much have settled at number and types I wanted. I started with most docile to the cautious ones
