The facts:
72 gallon bowfront
2 aquaclear 70-90 filters (I AM getting a rena filter and a skimmer within a month, waiting on my lfs stock to arrive)
3 power heads (794 gph flow ~also another 400gph powerhead ordered on lfs stock)
50 lbs aragonite
65 lbs live rock (planning to double that amount)
The coral:
50-60 mushroom polyps
1 colt coral
1 open brain coral
1 bubble coral
1 favite brain
1 devils hand leather
1 frogspawn
1 galaxy coral
The fish (here's the overkill)
1 copperband butterfly (doing AWSOME-eats like a pig)
2 bartlett anthias male/female (pretty sure thats where the unidentified babies came from)
2 banggai cardinals
1 yellow tang
1 clown (planning on a second for the pair:shock:)
1 cleaner wrasse
1 watchman goby
1 engineer goby
1 yellow wrasse
planning on 2 cleaner shrimp to replace the 2 I just lost.
ok, lemme have it.
How bad is it? I was doing a 10 gallon change every 10 days, but since upgrading to the 72 I may make the changes bigger. I don't plan on any more fish (although there is this yellow eyed kole tang?....ehem, sorry...)
