150 Gallon reef tank. I never clean the back of the tank but after watching this video I might start. :)

Corals include various zoanthids, fuzzy mushroom, green star polyp, ricordea, devils hand leathers, cat's paw, ORA green birds nest (not looking well), frogspawn, pulsing xenia, open brain, green slimer, acropora, green and purple monti cap, Kryptonite candy cane, and other stuff I am forgetting.

Fish are... 2 Yellow tangs, 2 Ocellaris Clown Fish, Hippo Tang, Coral Beauty, GSM Clown, Yellow Tail Damsel, Orange Spotted Goby, Scooter Blenny, Yellow Clown Goby.

Lighting is 2x175 Metal Halide, 1x250 watt Metal Halide, 4x54watt vho T5.

Pumps are 1 Koralia 3 and 1 Vortech mp40w (soon to be two Vortechs). If you look at the beginning of the video you can see that even ONE Vortech creates a wave in a 150 gallon tank. These things rock.

30 gallon sump, 16 gallon refugium

DAS BX-2 skimmer
