Nice job and congradulations on making 1 year

sales weasel · 05/24/2006, 06:57 PM

Very nice job. I also have a 55g with a 20g sump. I see you are using a Mag12 for flow. Is your tank drilled or are you using an external overflow? I have a LifeReef external overflow and anything larger than a Mag7 will overflow the tank.

drmnbass · 05/24/2006, 08:18 PM

sales weasal,
I have a drilled tank with a built in 1" overflow and 3/4 " return. The mag 12 is running @ about 85 % gated down with a ball valve.

Dude, you got three tangs in a 55gal tank?

whiteshark · 05/24/2006, 08:35 PM

So many tangs, so little space....

Nice job otherwise though!

blue20051 · 05/24/2006, 09:49 PM

santi · 05/24/2006, 09:54 PM

drmnbass · 05/25/2006, 02:04 PM

mystic dragon7,

I am upgrading to a 180 gal in a couple months. so the tangs will have plenty of room to grow.

drmnbass, I sent you a PM about a LFS I once went to in the Ft Laud/Hollywood area. Basically, I can't remember how to find it.
