    Default ETBReefer's 65 Gallon Wrasse Domination Tank

    As posted in my 30 gallon thread, the 60 gallon tank cracked a few days ago, so I decided to order a new hand-built tank from Reef Paradise (Thanks Mike!). Equipment as follows:

    Display-65 Gallon Breeder by Aquatic America 36x18x24 with black seams

    Sump-20 gallon tall with fuge

    Lighting-6x39w T5 Fluorescent Fixture with LED moonlights. Sump lit by single CF bulb in a Home Depot clip lamp

    Flow- Return: Eheim 1260 submersible pump with split Loc-Line return

    Powerheads- 2x Eco Modded Maxi Jet 1200 @ 600 or 1200 GPH depending in impeller.

    Overflow- DIY megaflow style black acrylic corner overflow with 1 1/2" Bulkhead and external durso.

    Skimmer: Coralife Superskimmer 120 w 1200lph venturi pump

    Dosing: Microbacter 7, Calcium/Kalkwasser.

    Fish List:

    Added from the 30 gallon:
    1-Coral Beauty Dwarf Angel Centropyge bispinosa
    1-Starry Blenny Salarias ramosus
    2-B&W Ocellaris Clowns by Tal Sweet Amphiprion ocellaris var.

    To be added after setup:
    1x Black Leopard Wrasse (Macropharyngodon negrosensis)
    2X McCosker's Wrasse (Male and Female) Paracheilinus mccoskeri
    2X Other Misc Fairy Wrasses

    Future Plans: successfully keep Leopard wrasse (my first Expert Only fish), Add some collector pieces of coral, upgrade powerheads to an Ecotech Vortech MP40w ES. Upgrade lighting to DIY 48x XP-G 3w LED fixture by Cree w/ Arduino programmable controller.
