Sharbuckle Posted January 27, 2017 Author Share Posted January 27, 2017 Ive been having this feeling lately that I truly only love nano reefs. The 65 is my biggest yet and for some reason I feel that I just want a small AIO system... Ugh. What to do. 3 Quote Link to comment

The 65 is my biggest yet and for some reason I feel that I just want a small AIO system... Ugh. What to do. You need to hang in there a year and if you still feel that way then act on it. I think in a nano you get that finished mature look sooner than a bigger tank and waiting for that can be frustrating. Then there is the bigger water changes. That forced me into a system that ended the heavy lifting. 2 Quote Link to comment

Sharbuckle Posted January 28, 2017 Author Share Posted January 28, 2017 Taking everybodies advice today. I have sold the torch corals as they were not going to survive in my tank. Fragged and sold the majority of my euphyllia except for a few of my favorite pieces. Got rid of my tunze 6040, and two koralia nanos and replaced with one gyre. Will be removing some unnecessary live rock and placing in the sump. Rescaping for the second and last time. Now I have some more room for some new gorgs and more softies Im feeling good about this 2 Quote Link to comment
Sharbuckle Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 So so so very happy with the new scape. Sold the majority of my euphyllia. Save for three of my favorites. The gyre pump is insanity. I have it at about 20% power as its maximum. I moved the scape away from the left side and got rid of some rock, added it to the sump. Also! Added a non photo sea fan, two actually. One is red with yellow polyps, all extended and happpy. The other is red on red. Anyway. Heres an fts. You will notice blue spots on the background. Before I set up the tank I painted the inside black. Welllllll that doesnt work!! Constantly pulling paint chunks out. Oh well. Lesson learned. Tank is more open now. Im a happy reefer today! 4 Quote Link to comment

Sharbuckle Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Local reefers custom tank leaked 60 gallons into his basement. Sad story.... I did however obtain three nice gorgs for a great price from him. Gotta figure out placement and ill post a new FTS. 2 Quote Link to comment
Sharbuckle Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 I think I may have just purchased a 230 gallon system.... Not so much a nano reef 2 Quote Link to comment
