Please thumbs up on stumble if you like this!

Hi all, it's been a while, but better late than never I guess ;)
After battling montipora eating nudibranch for 2 months, I thought I had won the fight, only to discover that a calcium overdose had slowed them down. ( I had reached 1000 instead of 400-500 we are aiming for!) So when the calcium problem got solved (still killed a bunch of corals), the nudis got back stronger than ever and ate pretty much all the montis available. So here is the tank 8 months after a heartbreaking battle that I lost. I plan on adding new corals in july, so stay tuned.

Started in february 2008, 6 ft, 130g display, 70g sump, 3x MH 400W 14 000 K Hamilton lights, 1x tunze 6080, 2x hydor koralia 4, 1x koralia 1, usa current 1/3 hp chiller, reeflo 200 skimmer, ph monitor, refractometer, cheato and caulerpa in sump+ 70 lbs live rock, fans, 1x 250 watt heater, 30g water reserve, 100 gpd RO/DI, Deltec H20 salt...

  • Wow nice tank

  • Wow, I really really like this tank. I see SOOOOOOOOOO many tanks and this one obviously has an expert behind the wheel. Great job, the video isnt bad either. The sped up part in the beginning is my favorite, you really get to see the territorial behavior of the fish. That yellow tang sure does have his area.

  • yoo what is this song called???

  • Those are some HUGE tangs

    

  • Beautiful tank, a lot of work has gone into this. You should be very proud.

  • phantogram <3
