Can you post some pics of the basement fish room?

 

[cdamiano]

Thanks everyone!!!! I appreciate the comments. Mike (MGNY) & Keith (Reefbum) - I got a lot of inspiration from your tanks and some of my corals I grew from frags from your tanks. I believe the Pearlberry is from Keith and the Pink Milli is from Mike.

I have had a few requests for more pics. I will try to get some more pics posted over the weekend.

Matt - there is a pic of the blue milli on the first page under the bubble gum milli (Pink Milli). I will see if I can get a pic of the blueberry over the weekend.

Here are some pics of my setup in my basement for my sump, frag tanks, etc. This is all plumbed upstairs to the main tank. My main return pump is a Reeflo Barracuda.

Here are some pics of the lighting on the display tank. I have 3 lumenarc reflectors running 250W halides w/Aquaconnect 14k bulbs on Galaxy select-a-watt ballasts. I also have 2 6' UVL Super Actinic VHO's running on a icecap 660 ballast.

My Green Slimer colony was outgrowing my tank so I had to remove it a few weeks ago. Rather than hack it up, I donated it to that little 20,000 gal. tank out in Riverhead so I can watch it reach it's full potential. Here is a picture of it when I removed it from my tank.

Nice Chris. So glad to see reefers choosing not to hack up their large colonies.
