nice tank. take the venturi of your powerheads airbubbles are not good for your tank. also will cause a lot of salt creep. also add another powerhead or two..

Nice tank. Great looking fish. Gotta love them Urchins .....

Bifferwine · Mar 23, 2010

Very nice! Good job so far.

Looking sweet!!

I'm sure you already know but watch that powerhead. It will suck fish from the bottom, I had one on a freshwater tank. I lost a few fish that way.:dunno:

We lost a yellowtail to it when we first added them. Now we have sponge filter media in front of the intake.

We plan to add at least one more powerhead. Most likely two smaller ones.

That sponge filter will decrease flow and will have to be cleaned often. I did the same thing and it was a PITA.

I have a 55 and use two Koralia #3's they give me plenty of flow.

great system ..aquascaping looks very nice

Leslee · Mar 26, 2010

Looking good so far!

Got a bunch more LR today. Thus new aquascaping.

Disregard the giant chunk protruding in the center of the tank. It needs broken into smaller chunks. Just stuck it there after we got lazy.
