100 Gallon Mixed Reef!

[Ian Fun]

Hi all,

my mixed reef tank seems to be coming along nicely, just slowly stocking fishes (rest of the fishes are in QT) and waiting for the corals to grow out! 3x2x2 Tank is from AM, got the set from them pretty reasonably. 90Gallon display and roughly 20gallon sump. Skimmer, bio pellet reactor, macroalgae, rowaphos and carbon in the sump. 

Shan't bore you with too much text, just gonna attach a video i made randomly on a hazy day. Enjoy!

Beautiful moorish idol!!

Very nice mixed tank bro, looks like you have excellent flow all over! Magnificent sea fan too!

I cant take all the credit for the scape, the uncle from AM painstakingly stacked it as per my desire/direction for a good few hours before we settled on this!

Thanks for the encouragement everyone! Will post some pics of the goodies in my QT and other tanks soon.

Some pictures I dredged up from my folders. Had issues with uploading them the last time but works now! 
 

FTS to start us off! Only  change is the Red sea fan is alittle lower. Urchin keeps nudging it off. 

Moorish making a mess of the Nori sometime back. 

Here are some of the fishes in the QT now.

Pyramid Butterfly

Watanabei Angel Female (big girl!)

Powder Blue Tang! Never had it have ich yet, 5 weeks into QT now. Eats like a pig. BFFs with Watanabei.

My fish room! Not as elaborate or awesome as other reefers here but works for me! My beardog loves to sleep in there. The 2 QTs are 40 gallons and the ones beside it are 2 footers which i have since been cycling and trying to plumb the bottom one into a sump for a smaller project. (if anyone has a skimmer or return pumps they wanna get rid off/sell, do pm me!) I have another DT in the living room which is 50gallons and has a YT and an algae blenny. More of a budget system, so no sps there, hah. 

Thanks for stopping by! have a great week ahead!

Wow, so many fish tanks!!

Some of the QT fishes. Lemon peel! What is he staring inside the betta box..?

He's staring at the tiny joculator! 

the joculator will have it's own 2 footer tank for a few months till it has the chance to grow out more before I tpy with the idea of putting him into my main tank. But right now, it's in the QT for the next couple of weeks! Here's to hoping he grows big and fat , fast.
