BULLET-PROOF REEF
The zero impact coral farming aquarium

third reef

This series of articles will document this reef aquarium as it grows into another prize winning brood stock aquarium. Sally Jo has two of the finest reef aquariums I have ever seen next to this new 55 gallon tank. We will be taking pictures of this tank each week so we can show some of the newest ways we build these complex reef systems using almost nothing from the wild reef.

THE CURED ARAGOCRETETM WE USED IN THIS REEF

Eddie's new ARCH TABLES are used to support all of the other rocks up off of the bottom of the aquarium. When this reef is stacked it only touches the sand in nine places.

This rock was growing in one of the 29 gallon reefs. We took it outside and crushed it into small pieces. These pieces were dumped in the reef on top of the new rock.
