your not gonna believe me, but im only using a fluval canister with a sea swirl and a hang on back red sea protein skimmer for filtration. my 2" sand bed and over 60lbs of live rock do the rest coupled with three koralia's as follows: 600gph (constantly on), then a 425gph and a 240gph that are plugged into a jbj duo controller, thet alternates every 60 seconds. temp stays between 78 and 80, all parameters are undetectable, lights are nova extreme t5 ho quad bulb, bulbs are as follows from front to back: 460nm super actinic, actinic white(similar to an aquablue special), 420nm true actinic, 460nm super actinic. timer is set for 7 am super actinic and true actinic on, 11am super actinic and actinic white on, 6pm actinic white and super actinic off, then 9pm super actinic and true actinic off. after each water change (20% every two weeks) i dose with coral-vite, trace elements, iodide, strontium and molybdenum, and purple up (for an extra boost of calcium), also gonna start dosing magnesium soon. i probably forgot something so youll hear from me again! lol

Create a photo bucket if you don't already have one, then upload the pictures to that. Once you upload the pictures You can click on the fourth URL on the right-hand Side of the screen, That will automatically copy it then you come back here and reply to a post and paste it in the reply box and it will show up as a big picture
