NiX05 75 Gallons Test Tank

[nix05]

I've been on Fishkeeping Hobby for more than a decade, from oscars, flowerhorn, angelfish, to all sort of Cichlids. Sufficed to say, I have experienced what most of us been through. But Im always fascinated to try out the so called "Pinnacle" of fishkeeping hobby, which is ReefKeeping.

Tank: 75 Gallons
Sump: DIY Overhead Planters Box with Sump and Skimmer (San ka pa? Meron ako parehas hehehe)
Skimmer: 12 year old Queen Turbo Skimmer with Resun 2700 Lph Powerhead
Refugium: Chaeto (Dragon'Breath & Red Blob on Display Tank)
Light: 2x 160watts China Leds

So here goes my testing tank.




I dont have fancy livestocks and equipments.





SPS Testing, Common Staghorn with Host Crab (Both Alive and Growing)






My Queen Turbo Skimmer and Resun 27000/Lph were almost 12 years to date. Hehehe...Vintage



Unfortunately, these will be my first and last update.
Coz its time for UPGRADE, I bought a secondhand 200 Gallons Reef Ready Tank with Cabinet and Synthetic Corals.


Guys, please help me out here to fill my livestocks. Suggestions are highly appreciated.
