Our 20 long brought back from the dead. This tank is a little over a year old. Started out with Corallife PCs and a cheap HOB power filter. Lost some zoanthids during the nudribranch war during the summer of 2011. Lost 2 acan colonies and several polyp heads of a branching hammer from failed RO system ( check you TDS on your RO system! They don't last forever, especially if you take it off line for any length of time.). I have since upgraded the lighting system to Current 4 bulb T5 fixture and CPR Aeroforce skimmer. I run one power head in the back behind the rock and one at the top front corner of each side. The tank has come along ways though still dealing with some of the fall out of the poor water quality problems I had. Fighting calerpa (feather) on severaly fronts and hair algae at few isolated locations.

 

Looking great Chris !

Pretty good. Zoanthids are better. Lost my hornets though. Apparently the frag came off the rock. Once that happened, pistol shrimp must have stolen them. Finally took out the anemone. Sucker was getting too big and was causing problems with its neighbors.

The goniopora is doing very well.

My new bulbs will be here tomorrow. Stayed w/ the same. I've been looking at getting an LED strip for supplementing shimmer and Z/P pop. Like Kat has.

 

Settled in to your knew digs?

Yep...so far so good, just miss NSW and the prices lol :)

I have a Ecoxotic stunner strip on my tank...you can't really see the shimmer when the T5's are on tho :(

Didn't even think about the NSW situation. Considering all the back and forth discussions about salt mixes that I ignored, bad feels for you Maria.
