So after 8 years I have made it to the big boys forum!
2400 x 800 x 700 in Wall Tank with the main focus on fish with SPS corals. This will be my 5th Reef in 9 years which all started with a 3 x 18 x 18 that grew to a 4 x 2 x 2 pretty quicky. Next came the 6 x 2 x2 then I discovered the beauty of wider tanks with a 5ft x 800 x 550. This tank only came after my first attempt at an 8 x 3 x 2 cracked when I filled it. Then after 4 years I finally upgraded to this tank and have put it in wall.
System Objectives: A Fish dominated SPS tank. Yes I would like pretty colored corals but no I do not want to put that much effort in or have no fish. I will keep those corals that can handle some nutrient such as Dalles and go from there. I would also like an Anemone in this tank
