About my reef:

The tank is a 125 gallon reef ready by AGA.It contains about 90 lbs of Figi rock. I use the Jaubert (NNR) method for my reef. My reef houses many corals as well as 11 fish.The reef is illuminated by 3 400 watt iwasaki 6500k halides and 2 160 watt URI actinics. I use an Octopus controller to monitor Ph and ORP. I also use a Sandpoint 3xr wavemaker to simulate natural currents.

Additives I use:

Evaporation control:

Added daily are:
40 ml b-ionic calcium/buffer
1ml potassium iodide
1/2ml strontium chloride
All supplements are made by ESV.

A reef-filler pump constantly adds kalkwasser to maintain consistant tank water level. Approx. 1 1/2 gals of kalkwas-
ser is added daily. All water is RO/DI

Views of the sump and skimmer:

The sump is a 30 gallon long drilled for 2 bulkhead fittings.1 for the return pump ( little giant 4mdq-sc ), and 1 for the skimmer pump ( little giant 3mdq-sc ). The sump houses my skimmr, a Red Sea Berlin unit, the probes for the Octopus controller, and the heaters,2 Otto computherm 300 watters. Also, I do not use any mechanical or chemical filtration (ie carbon or sponges ).
