Hi friends! I am Mike from the Philippines and have been following SGReefClub for almost a year now! :) After my old tank getting lots of GHA, bryopsis, lots of corals withering away I have decided to make a new tank. Double the size and double the fun!!! :)

Doing some rockscaping so I can start with the cycling.

The tank size will be 72" x 24" x 20"h

Am currently researching on which protein skimmer to get, my options were RO Elite-200 INT and RO Ikskrat IXS2-SS. As the Ikstrakt is substantially lower priced, I am wondering is anyone can give me good feedback on these two skimmers. :)

yes. they are dead rocks. bought them as live rocks directly from the sea but had to douse them in hydrogen peroxide to get rid of hitchhikers. then sun dry them to make sure theyre all dead.

Funny enough, i think i overbought my rocks as from the picture, 1 tile is 1 square feet. lucky I live in a place where LR is plentiful an being sold for sgd1 for 1kg :)
