Here are the specs for my tank, I have a 75gal reef that was setup 4 years ago, but then I went to college and sold most of the stuff, then I had a pump fail while I was at school and the LR bleached, now I've started it again and its been up for about a month now correctly, it was pseudo cycling before that. It looks kinda stupid cause half my rock is bleached, and the other half has corraline on it. Hopefully this will change over the next few months.

Tank: 75 Gal All Glass "ghetto, I can't drill the bottom" tank

Lighting: 2 400watt AB 10ks on a normal PFO ballast

Sump: 30 gallons

Live Rock: I dunno somewhere in the range of 90-110 lbs

Sand: 100lbs

Protien Skimmer: Prototype ETS ReefDevil (my claim to fame) only 2 in the world as far as I know :) Taller than a normal reefdevil, but shorter than the next model up.

Pumps: 1 Rio 2500 for return, 1 Mag7 for the skimmer

Circulation: 3 Maxijet 900s

Water Purification: Kent Maxxima RO/DI 35gpd connected to a float valve

Heating/Cooling: Won titanium heater, desk fan for cooling when needed

Fish: Purple Tang, Hippo Tang, Royal Gramma and a Tomato Clown

Spineless Inhabitants: 2 Serpent Stars, snails and crabs, Derasa Clam, Maxima Clam, 2 Cleaner Shrimp

Corals: Pearl Bubble, Red Ricordia, Green Ricordia, Branching Hammer, Favites Brain, Sinularia, Golden Toadstool Leather and its baby

Foods: Nori for the tangs, and a mixture of brineshrimp/mysis/squid for all the fish every day. Some of the corals pick up on whatever is floating around I don't really feed them.

Maintainance: I add B-Ionic every day, until my calcium reactor comes in the mail, and I do a water change of about 10 gallons every 3 weeks (while I'm home) otherwize its 20 gallons every 3 months when I'm at college.

Variables: PH 8.0-8.3, Nirates/Ammonia/Nitrites = 0, Calcium = 450ppm

I know the tank hasn't been up for long, but most of the stuff is transfered from my 10gal reef that I had at school but had to take down for the summer. The tangs obviously I got at home, I wouldn't put those in a 10gal. Most stuff is tank raised from what I've been told. The hammer, toadstool, shrimps and hippo were all from people's tanks, in which they told me that they were also tank raised. I'll post some pics when I finally have a camera, maybe I can borrow the one from work.
