Kind of a strange coincidence. I too just upgraded from a BC29 to a 72 gal bow front and my BC29 was about a year old. I notice that you have 4 Koralias going? I only have two and a Cascade 800 canister filter going and I am getting really good water flow throughout the whole tank (at least it looks that way to me). Reckon I should try a video clip to get some opinions.

Nothing really, just skimmer, fuge and return pump. I do use NSW (natural sea water) for my WC

Cool, I usually pick mine up from Neptune's too or Atlantis. I was just wondering because I have a mild red slime on my sand. I thought maybe it was from the NSW

beautiful tank! I love the bowfronts. I have a 46 freshwater chiclid and a 16 coldwater fantail goldfish. I would love to get a really huge one 90 or 150 way down the road but I don't think I would ever be able to do saltwater in it. I would be too afraid of something going wrong and being out all that money for the coral. LOL I know...I'm a chicken. But I do love yours so I will just live it through you.

for the most part it's easier to go big then Nano or Pico. with that much water you can catch stuff before it gets outta control. This tank was my vote for our clubs TOTM, as he has had amazing growth and proven that the tank can be mantained to that level
