75 Gallon Mixed Reef Tank

Matt and Carol's 75 gallon mixed reef aquarium under Actinic lighting. This aquarium is about a year old. All of the SPS coral started as 1" frags and are beginning to fill in and color up. I will be posting a follow up in a year or so, to show the aquariums progress. The music is something I composed for a feature length documentary film, titled "Closer to God". If you like, you can check out more stuff at greencoatface.com.

you have a truly amazing and healthy tank. Great polyp extension, anemone looks fat and awesome. Great job. It seems the truly great tank owners use the 2 part Bionic. I shall as well.

[mattgeldof]

Thanks! I have been using Bionic for almost 10 years. I'm sure a calcium reactor would prove effective as well, but i like the simplicity of 2 part dosing.

[mattgeldof]

[Cheekydogextreme1]

Be careful! Foxface rabbitfish is highly venamous towards humans. If you touch it's fins it may sting you like a bee. If your allergic to bees you may not be safe and may need to take medicene, or worse!!!
