Blazin's 40 Gallons Of Freedom

[BlazinReef]

Well as some of you nay know my 46 gallon bowfront crashed about a month ago. Actually a month tomorrow. Well I was gonna upgrade to an old 90 I have but changed my mind. So I went and got a brand new 40 breeder. Used all my old equipment and built the new tank. I absolutely love the dimensions of the 40 breeder. Wide and shallow. All the rocks in the tank but two where made by me out of ceramic. Used dead sand and a small container of live tropic eden sand that Jack (Boostable) hooked me up with. I used my original 6x39 watt tek light with all ATI bulbs but looking into a LED fixture. The crash was a complete lost. Three years worth of collecting gone except for 4 pieces I was able to run to Jack's house to hold for me. Will get pics tomorrow. Just need to get some corals in the tank now.....lol

What are the dimensions on the 90?

[BlazinReef]

90 are 48x18x24. My tek light is 36" and the 40 is 36x18x16.

Getting a little diatom bloom but what do I expect for the tank being up and running for only two weeks. But here are pics like I promised...

Well 1 of the baby clowns took a ride on the overflow roller coaster. Well the sump is just a 10 gallon tank till the new sump is ready. Well it is just stuffed with everything. I pulled him out of the sump yesterday and put him back in the display. He looked like he was having a little it of a hard time swimming after being banged up. Well this morning he was laying on the sand. So his little buddy is going to live with the fiance' clown who is also from Iggy. So right now the tank will sit fishless.

[UFFishingirl]

Im sorry about your clown. Just give me the other one and everything will be alright.

So I am thinking about adding a cryptic fuge to the new sump. Ohh I forgot to mention I put a new sump on the tank. Will get pics of it tomorrow. But back to the cryptic fuge. I have one setup on my fiance' tank. It works awesome. The amount of life in it is crazy. What do you think?
