One of the coolest tanks I've ever seen

[snowmansnow]

this was ToTM at another site last year and I just wanted to make sure everyone has seen it! NPS and AWESOME...

NPS tanks are sweet, but just an absolute different ballgame from a reef tank (as you see in reading the writeup). Very cool tank though.

ya. i'm reading through the article again.. you wouldn't BELIEVE what this guy feeds on a constant basis... crazy amounts of food in the water column.. and then to keep nitrates down ... geez

the article is worth the read. it reminds me that keeping an sps tank is pretty freakin simple.

<li>Argent Labs Cyclop-eeze</li>
<li>Nutramar Ova</li>
<li>Omega One Baby Brine Shrimp</li>
<li>Jehmco Rotifers</li>
<li>H2O Life Reef Caviar</li>
</ul>
The dry foods that I add to the flask are:
<ul>
<li>Fauna Marin Ultra Clam</li>
<li>Fauna Marin Ultra SeaFan</li>
<li>Fauna Marin UltraMin F</li>
<li>Fauna Marin UltraMin D (liquid amino acid supplement)</li>
<li>Fauna Marin UltraLife</li>
<li>Fauna Marin UltraPac</li>
<li>Fauna Marin Ultra Zoa food</li>
<li>Sea Slug CoralsCaptiv-E</li>
<li>NP Reef Pearls</li>
</ul>


Although it is a long list of ingredients, I cut the frozen foods into cubes and and mix all of the powder foods together ahead of time. Everything is mixed with clean saltwater to make 1000 mL of mixture. Fifty millilters of this mixture is dosed every hour for about 20 hours per day. Additionally, I supplement with Reef Nutrition Oyster Feast,

yeah that is a completely different ballgame! Very beautiful, wouldn't mind knowing the rules though

That is cool!! Talk about 180 degree turn around in one's approach.
