    Default 180

    Well heres the 180g
    I got the tank from dannyv and was it fun to move … it made me realize I need to work out some lol
    Here are the specs

    6*2*2 RR dual overflow

    Lights = 8 4 ft T5HO bulbs and 2 VHO 4 ft bulbs

    UV sterilizer =2 one 40w gamma UV and one 18w turbo twist I figure this will help with all the tangs I plan on having : )

    Skimmer = Euro-reef RS 180 (skims pretty good )

    Sump 75g Ace built

    Flow = Tunze 6100 with controller along with a K4 andK3 power head

    return pump is a MAG18 ( geez this thing makes some heat )

    Chiller is a 1/3 hp no clue on the brand

    I ended up reusing all of my sand plus his old sand washed it well and never had an issue
    I have to thank Danny for the great deal on the tank along with Joe (Joe31) for coming over and helping me move the tank inside also Jason @AD for any random part I needed he had or got it quickly

    I honestly hate the canopy the temps are really high because the heat the canopy holds I have a HEB 5 $ fan in the sump which keeps the temp @ 80 now but I lose so much water I guess I can hook up the
    Tunze ATO

    Here are the pics
    All lights on

    Just actinic lights

    Some coral/fish pics
    Xmas favia

    Good job JT, do you need more timers?. That is one big Toadstool.
    Reefing is just like cooking, all the ingredients have to be just right , except you don't have to bring the water to a BOIL...

    My only critique, add a background to hide what looks to be a round mirror hanging on the wall. You may have already brought this up, but I admit I did not read through the entire thread.
