    Default My Tank

    Ok heres a piccy of my main tank its 8 months old and in need of a little clean so apologies...

    Anyhow its a 5*2*2 filtered with LR (apporx 90kilos) and a berlin skimmer.
    I have some LR Rubble in sump with some chaeto and run an internal filter with some rowphos in there.

    Its a very simple system but so far its working and i am happy with it at the minute although i am a long way off finishing it!!

    Regarding Livestock i have the following

    Sailfin Tang, Yellow Tang, Kole Tang, Bi-Coloured Angel, Sleeper Goby, Algae Blenny , Yellow Goby, Cleaner Wrase, Pair of Common Clowns

    Cleaner Shrimp,2 Peppermints and approx 18 Turbos, approx 40 blue legs and other various snails

    Can i also take the opportunity to thank Eric (AKA TANGMAN) for all his help he was a great help when i set this tank up and even helped me collect it from liverpool....so thanks eric

    Looks like a sinularia sp finger leather?? They prefer low to moderate flow, but other than that are fairly hardy. I occasionally squirt water over mine with a turkey baster if there are any particles resting on it.
