65 gallon reef tank

this tank was started on august 28 2010 first hit saltwater lol

i used about 30 lbs of live rock from a fellow reefer and about 40lbs of live rock from my existing reef tank

the only new thing was the crushed coral
had a small diatom outbreak but only lasted about 2 weeks after fish and cleaning crew went in

i used 50% of the water from my old reef tank

Half of those rocks were pure white when i used the old water i scraped coraline off the rocks/glass so the rocks colored up fast

my cycle lasted 8 days

the first fish i added was the 6 line wrasse and the black and white clown

then the yellow tang and green chromis ,than the flame angel all with 2 weeks apart
I quarantined the flame angel for 2 months in a nano cube because he came from the store

the only reason i have the yellow tang is i rescued him when i got him he was white with a concave belly so he is doing better in my 65 gallon than he would be doing dead lol:)
as you can see he is doing better nice color and plump

there is no other fish that are going to go in there just coral

I will post updated video when i ad coral

Enjoy :)
