My 29 gallon reef up and running for 2 years pics

ziggyboy3d · 06/27/2011, 09:23 PM

Hey everyone, here is my 29 gallon reef with 150w phoenix 14k MH and 2 65w attenics. Its been running on two fluval 250 canister filters with reef carbon for the past two years and has been doing awesome. I built the stand and drilled the tank myself. I clean the filters and do 10% water change and add coral vital every month, and top off RO every week. I target feed mysis, cyclopes, phytoplankton, and filter feeder food twice a week. We have two fish, a bi-color blenny and a Yasha shrimp goby. They are the survivors, we did have a yellow tang and ransfordi goby but they died the month I was in Argentina and couldn't up keep my tank. Have tons of corals from zoas, to mushrooms, leathers, lsps, and sps. Everything has grown so fast we had to buy a bigger tank and I have been building a 75 gallon reef which I posted earlier today on the forum. So just let me know what you think. I will post pics of the past year and a half and you can see the growth!

Here is the tank now with the moon lights on

August 2010

February 2011

And the tank now with the Phoenix 14k
