My current tank is 90 gallons with a 29 gallon refugium setup for 2 years now. Currently in my main tank the live sand bed is about 6" deep(160#) with a plenum. Nitrates stay at unmeasurable levels. The reef structure is made up of 150# of live rock and approx. 30# of base and tuffa rock.

Lighting consists of a single 400w Metal Halide bulb, 6500k. Eventually I plan on adding a second 400w to further fuel my stony coral growth and eliminate the shadow of the center brace.

Circulation is handled by two opposing powerheads. An overflow is used to bring the water to the refugium and returned to the main tank with a Maxi-jet powerhead. The refugium is home to many critters (amphipods, mysid shrimp, bristleworms, etc.) and growing full of various macroalgae. I was using a skimmer but have noticed no decline in coral growth or overall health since the skimmer was removed 8 months ago.
