kbl14's 65 Gallon Tank


65 GALLON TANK

Tank Specs: OCEANIC REEF READY TANK BEGAN IN AUGUST 2007

Lighting: (1) 250 15K MH AND (2) 96W TRUE ACTINIC

Circulation: I HAVE (2) KORALIA 3 PUMPS AND A MAG DRIVE 7 RETURNING THE WATER FROM THE SUMP (DIALED BACK A BIT)

Filtration: I AM RUNNING VERY BASIC FILTRATION RIGHT NOW. CURRENTLY I HAVE A SMALL SUMP IN WHICH I HAVE A FILTER PAD TO CATCH ALL THE BIG STUFF AND SOME CHARCOAL IN THE BOTTOM. I USE BI WEEKLY WATER CHANGES TO KEEP EVERYTHING IN CHECK. I CHECK PARAMETERS WEEKLY.

Additives: I CURRENTLY ADD B-IONIC 2 PART ADDITIVE 20 ML EACH PART ON A DAILY BASIS. TO KEEP NUTRIENTS DOWN I FEED MY FISH ONCE A DAY: SPIRULINA BRINE SHRIMP, FLAKE FOOD FOR THE FISH AND ALSO CYCLOPS FOR THE FEW ZOANTHIDS, MUSHROOM AND RICORDEAS (ONCE A WEEK).

Critters: MY TANK IS CURRENTLY HOME TO (2) MATED PERCULA CLOWNFISH, (1) LAWNMOWER BLENNY, (1) YELLOW WRASSE, (12) BLUE LEGGED HERMITS, (12) ASTREA SNAILS, (2) PEPPERMINT SHRIMP, A FEW ZOANTHIDS, (3) RICORDIA, (1) LONELY BLUE MUSHROOM AND POSSIBLY (1) ROYAL GRAMMA CURRENTLY MIA. I THINK THAT IS ALL.

Maintenance: I CLEAN THE FRONT GLASS EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS AND DO A WATER CHANGE EVERY TWO WEEKS (APPROXIMATELY 10 GALLONS). PARAMETERS CHECKED WEEKLY.
