Hey guys, ive had my tank for a little over 1.5 years and i absolutely love it. I got into this hobby because of my marine science class and made sure before i started i knew the chemistry behind it and all the aspects that go into having a saltwater aquarium.
My tank specifications:
- 30 gallon long main tank
- 20 gallon sump/refugium
- 2 korelia 750 gph
- overflow box
- 550 pump (pumps water to the top)
- protein skimmer (looks bad, but it does a very good job IMO)
- UV sterilizer
- 60lbs of liverock
- 40lbs of live sand on maint tank (20lbs on refugium)
- 250w metal hallide light with 4 blue Actinic lights and 4 LED moonlights
Inhabitants:
INVERTABRATES-
- astrea snails
- redleg hermit crabs
- blueleg hermit crabs
- electric hermit crabs
- serpent starfish
- nassarius snail
- margarita snail or mexican turbo snail (cant remember :( )
- tuxedo sea urchin
- long tentacle anemone
- one feather duster
- 2 peppermint shrimp
CORALS-
- torch coral
- frogspawn
- hammer coral
- ricordea mushroom
- kenya tree
- pink sponge
- duncan's
- BIG toadstool lol
- Alot of red mushroom
- xenia
FISH: Its a mature tank so i know it probably is overstocked but the fish and overal the whole tank have been doing amazing and ihave not had a fatality in 1 year
- 2 ocellaris clownfish
- pygmy angelfish
- blenny
- hector goby
- BLUE TANG (BEFORE you yell at me lol its a small tang and i have an agreement with the LFS here in cape cora. I raise one small blue tang until it reaches a med-small size and then i give it to them because they sell those very quickly. The LFS here usually keeps the blue tangs in like a 10inch cube thing and we both came into an agreement that one blue tang would do better in my tank then in theirs. SO once it grows alittle more i will give it back to the LFS and they will give me another small one bc i have done this already for six months and have had 0 blue tangs die in my tank while the LFS have had aroudn 23 die in their small cube tank :\)
