Nikki,
I had 2 koralias "3" and 1 "4" that left the tank.
I can't tell if growth has changed because of the pump or the new bulbs..
Measurable changes:
temperature dropped 1 full degree
cyano and hair algae gone
fish disposition much more active
overall tank health better!
The only thing I...
Hi Nikki!
The MP10's rule! The one that runs daytime is on reefecrest mode at 100% power, right in front of my rose anemone, it loves it! Since I moved to the MP10's the anemone has been more open than ever and the movement is gorgeous!
The night time one is running at about 75% speed constant...
OK...
the foil is just to allow for pictures, they come out after the shots.
the skimmer is good, not great, a bit noisy, easy to set and has a large chamber where I put carbon in.
It is actually one MP10 running at a time, so once ones goes on, the other goes off, witha 40 minute overlap to...
OK...
So I have been a member here since March or so and have never posted a picture of my tank... :-[
Well here it is...
75gal tank with about 120lbs of live rock. I use a remora hang on the back skimmer, an aqua clear modded refugium, and two 150 watts coralife pendants with 14K bulbs...
A couple of weeks ago Ed (our VP) came over to my house and suggested I get black cucumber to keep my sandbed clean...well I did (thanks Will!) and my sandbed has never looked this clean!!! Thanks Ed!
The cuke stays in the sand 100% of the time and goes back and forth in the tank, best sand...
I am willing to pay an extra couple of bucks for a 100% farm raised retailer source...either raised in house, or purchased from a certified farmed source...just not for kenya tree! :D

a high tech planted discus tank "Amano Style" may be one of the most difficult things to maintain in the whole aquarium world!
Adult Discus are not that demanding, grow outs and breeders are demanding!
