I'm obsessed with silence and my goal was to create a Marine tank that will achieve true 0 db noise levels. I believe I achieved it as the tank is dead silent.

This is my first Marine tank, but I have previous experience in planted tanks.

Equipment

  • Reefer 250 Tank with Silent Overflow
  • Vortech MP40D with Quiet Drive
  • Royal Exclusive Mini RD3 return Pump
  • Bubble King Mini 160 Skimmer
  • Maxspect Razer 180w 15k LED
  • Aquaroche Rocks
  • Caribsea Special Grade Sand

Since I've done planted tanks before, I was heavily focusing on creating a scape that would be optimal visually applying the golden ratio and other depth related tricks. Enjoy!

Back for an update! Fish are finally in and a few LPS changes. I think I managed to really cram in more! I thought it was full before, but I just couldn't resist finding more space.
