well been a while... tank is doing all right, i mean its not in its prime.... but everyone is happy, fish are fat, lost some picky corals, but the rest are taking over the tank....
but thinking of downsizing.... only because i really need the room back... my boys are getting older, the house is getting smaller....
i have a 40 gallon low iron peninsula tank.... i think it is just the ticket.... probably use just the khg and kalk to keep up with demand..... get a smaller sump that will fit under the stand....
ill keep ya posted...

meantime i am looking for a smaller sump... let me know

Well change in plans, finally upgraded lighting, I needed bulbs really bad, so I decided to change it up (get the interest back in the hobby,)

I have two AI primes over the tank and a black box, ( Next week maybe I can scrounge the money together for another AI) ... And yeah it might be a little bit less light over the tank but it has that amazing shimmer that I miss that we used to get from metal halides... And believe it or not all of the monties that I have in the tank don't seem to mind the less light mind you I should maybe measure with a par meter...

I'll post some pics when I get the third LED fixture up there...

Nothing like buying some new stuff for the tank to rekindle interest in the hobby. Hahaha
