58 Reef Ready is running
I have upgraded to a 58 Oceanic Reef Ready. I added a sump with a refugium area and a EuroReef ES5-2 skimmer. |

Hows the DSB working, looks like you keep it clean, I'm thinking of going to the darkside and throwing mine out but my gobbie might be upset with me....

Beautiful tank! I am in the process of building my first ever saltwater tank and I in study mode. So far, I only have a 75 gal. tank and a stand to set it on (she's bone dry). I am in the process of deciding what to purchase next as I have a budget and scrapbooking wife. So, what's next, skimmer, filter, powerhead, etc.? Any tips would be great as I am very impressed with your 1+ year creation.
