MORE PICTURES OF THIS REEF AQUARIUM

Rachel is very proud that she is the only one who has done anything to this wonderful reef aquarium. She decorated the reef aquarium with many tank raised corals and mushrooms.

This reef aquarium was started using GARF GRUNGE TM and GARF BIOROX TM both of these products are completely seeded with all of the bacteria and Micro fauna that a reef aquarium will need to maintain any type of reef population.

EQUIPMENT LIST

LIGHTING     - 3 Four foot 40 watt bulbs - 1 Blue Moon 2 Tritons


LIGHT HOOD   - 1 Piece of tin foil - Rachel says that it is best if    
               you crumple the foil and then flatten it, this gives 
               the added benifit of having stars on your walls. The 
               light shines thru the small holes. :)

 
FILTER       - NONE 


SKIMMER      - Air powered $20.00 plastic in tank Lee's skimmer

SOME OF THE ANIMALS LIVING IN RACHEL'S REEF

This tank was set up by using 80 lbs. of GARF BIOROX TM and 20 lbs. of GARF GRUNGE TM.

This reef is cleaned very little because the REEF JANITORSTM keep the glass and roclk very clean and algae free. The coralline algae has started to cover the aragonite BIOROXTM and this reef will soon be full of very fine tank raised live rock. 3>
