Hey Everyone,

I decided to finally start a tank build for my display tank. Most of you know me from my username The Captive Reef over the years on my site where I sold corals for 10+ years or on other boards like this one.

http://www.thecaptivereef.com/store/

About me:

I have been in the hobby for just over 20 years from working in a local fish store to running my own business for 10 years. With the birth of my 2 children I found that I no longer had the time to devote to selling corals like I did. I wanted a way to stay in the hobby and share what I have learned over the years so The Reef Hub was born. Enough about me on to the tanks :D

Display tank:
30X30X24 1/2" thick custom Starfire glass made by aquarium obsessed in Canada ( no longer in business)


Stand:
Wood stand built by myself with a granite top and the wood is wrapped in Black Starboard.

Lighting:
Giesseman 250 watt infinity fixture with (1) 250 watt halide and (4) T-5 actinics. I also have (2) blue Reefbright strips running as well.


Sump:
90 Gallon allglass tank


Skimmer:
ATB : 1050A

Dosing pump:
Profilux stand alone dosing pump

Main Pump:

Iwaki MD-100RLT

Chiller/ heating:

Teco T-20 Chiller

I am also running:

45 gallon cube for anemones and frags with AI SOL blue for lights

10 gallon fuge w/ Japanese 150watt spotlight on it

100 vertex deluxe O unit.

(2) vortech MP 40 in display

(1) vorthec MP10 on the 45 gallon


I will keep adding to this thread as I get new stuff :D

I will go into detail about every animal in the tank, just need a little time to get everything posted.
