This might be one of the best looking tanks I’ve ever seen. WOW!!

[@WorldWideCorals]

Looks amazing!!!!🔥

[@juanespinosa9292]

Awesome tank with amazing coloration, keep up the good work Vince!!!!!

[@WorldWideCorals]

Thank you for giving it a watch

[@vinsreeftank5278]

Thank you!

[@Random.Thoughts21]

Amazing results for such a simple setup another lesson for all the reefers. Focus on stability and good practices. You dont need most expensive equipment to run beautiful reef tank.

[@vinsreeftank5278]

Thanks

[@WorldWideCorals]

That is the biggest key to success, Stability!!

[@mikec1313]

Definitely! I run a 150g mixed reef with no sump, mixed external filter styles and keep it very stable with just that

[@anashsamman]

Totally agree 👍

[@francischeah65]

This tank is awesome!!! Thanks for sharing. Love the colours and the diversity of coral. Excellent job!! 👍👍

[@WorldWideCorals]

It was a super clean set up!

[@foreignflava9666]

Yo Vic watching you present these gorgeous reef tanks making me get the itch to get back into the hobby man, I got 3 years of keeping an SPS dominated reef under my belt which means I already got my feet wet, (or hands for that matter) so to speak and allow me to attain even better success 2nd time around..thanks mi amigo!!

[@WorldWideCorals]

[@Cycnoches2012]

Hi Vince thank you for sharing your beautiful system! do you know what PAR you run ?

[@vinsreeftank5278]

I'm not sure what the par is on this tank, but when I had the same lights on the smaller tank, the par was between 300 on the upper parts and 100 or so on the sand bed.

[@primereef2451]

amazing tank ! what is the schedule for the kessils and XHO ? intesty?

[@WorldWideCorals]

We will ask Vin to see if he can share that

[@WorldWideCorals]

Hi, run on the spectral controller. 12 hour ramp up from 0-100 intensity and then a ramp down. Mostly white for the first few hours then turning blue for the rest of the day.

[@Ellery-USA]

Awesome setup from a fellow New Yorker

[@WorldWideCorals]

😃🤘 I use to fan the sump but I learnt across the tank surface is way more effective and also cools the lights

[@tenchi144]

@vinsreeftank5278 I've had my tank running for 2 years and it looks like a disgrace compared. But thank you for sharing because seeing your tank gives me hope that some hard work will get my tank looking halfway as good as yours

[@WorldWideCorals]

@@tenchi144 It is a turtle race remember that my friend.

[@freddiebreine]

Absolutely incredible. I'm surprised the SPS are so happy with the rather weak Kessils

[@WorldWideCorals]

He is able to keep it stable and the coral acclimated to that.

[@vinsreeftank5278]

So I have not measured this current tank but the previous tank with the same lighting set I was getting 300 par in the upper parts. Definitely sufficient but would be curious to see how some of the acropora would react to higher Par in the 400-500 range. Thinking of upgrading to the 500x sometime in the near future.

[@bobbyheath3182]

Hi Vince, the corals on this system are right up there with Jason Fox if not brighter. One quick question, do you does anything? Aminos or coral food ? Thanks

Hi Vince. Beautiful tank. Can you share how you setup up your power heads? I have the same and I want to put the 2 AIs on the back like you did and the MPs where you did. Which directions did you point you AIs and are the MPs set perfectly across from eachother or are they offset? I keep watching but I can’t quite tell

I will see if we can get him to let you know 😀
