bedank karel, het zal hier voorlopig stil blijven, omdat ik dit nog niet breed communiceert naar buiten toe.
alles heeft zijn tijd nodig en ik heb geen haast.

Feeding the tank:

This is  how i prepare my daily food for the tank ,Step bij step (of course normally without exactly weighting all ingredients, i just grab some out of the freezer).

i start with some  random deep freeze food , total 30-40 gram
(http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7378/11404782245_75f0fb2495_z.jpg)

all goes into the bottle (minus the bottle weight)

This goes in also, both  one full spoon

Don't try this at home ....

That is my advice for anyone who don't have full control over his water quality.
i have manage to control my water parameters in such a way i can afford to do this.
Not any tank can take this kind of feeding without consequence.

Besides the manual feeding there are 2 feeding timers filled with SPS and LPS food
Each timer can feed twice per 24hours
the fist feed at 6:00 and 18:00
the second feed at 0:00 and 12:00
besides that is is possible to feed randomly bij pressing a button.

The 2 feeding timers:

The content:

These picture were taken with one hand free with a samsung SGS-4A mobile phone.
The focus  is poor and color presentation don't resembles the reality.

FTS with feeding left first:
(http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7356/11404760026_2662662c25_b.jpg)

and after feeding all:
(http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2839/11404759376_7a4324331c_b.jpg)

ALL "FEEDING SESSIONS" PICTURES WERE TAKEN BY MYSELF WITH A SAMSUMG SGS-4A MOBILE PHONE, WITH ONLY ONE HAND FREE.

SO THE FOCUS AND COLOR REPRESENTATION ARE FAR FROM OPTIMAL .........!

Hatching Artemia eggs is pretty easy.
- First make you own hatching container!
- Take a 1 liter soda bottle and cut out the bottom.
- Place the bottle upside down into an holder (a pot for preserved vegetables)
- Fill the bottle with saltwater and add one tea spoon of artemia eggs
- Pllace a 5mm pipe connected to a air pump into the bottle
- After 24-36 hours most eggs will be hatched at 25 degrees Celcius
- Take out the air pipe and let i rest for 10 minutes, the empty egg shell will have float to the surface
- Siphon the newly hatched artemia into the tank

This food is best for (NPS) corals and small fish

My hatching is being done into the sump.
i use my "zeolite" reactor/bacteria breader to slide the hatching bottle into, this keep it standing, warm and out of the way.
Also i have everything close at salt hand water, heat and air. No more spilling on the ground and no taking up room elswhere.

This is the procedure i use to feed newly hatched artemia:
1- Get the hatching bottle out of the reactor and place it into a "stable" yoghurt cup and let is rest for 10 minutes.
2- Siphon out the artemia until i reach the empty egg shells on the surface
3- Take the bottle out for cleaning
4- Place the bottle back into the reactor
5- Fill the bottle with  water right out of the sump and  put 1 tea spoon full off fresh eggs into the bottle
6- Stick the air pipe into the bottle and I am ready to go!
7- Nou wait 24-36 before next feeding session....

Total 15 minutes of work  (10 minutes is for waiting for the empty shells to float up)

Noting is being waisted, no rinsing or throwing away used water involved, all water is being recycled bij the system.
When i put up a new culture, i just i use water right out of the sump.
the only time i walk to the water tap is to brush out and clean the inside of the bottle before  putting up a new culture.

Hallo GlennF,

Hij was al mooi maar dit slaat echt alles zijn weer om te smullen en te glunderen en zal ook mijn tank hier op het forum plaatsen.

Gr. Karel.

This is what the skimming look like after 5-7 days using:
CarbonVS (week8 dosing)
Fe+ 0,15ppm per day
Fe trace 0,05ppm every other day
@ PO4=0.1ppm / NO3=3ppm
Busy lowering from 0,24ppm/25ppm Because RO devixe was disfunctional.

Macropharyngodon Ornatus (purchased 15/2/2013)
after introduction i lost him for 3 weeks and i have already given up on him, only to see it turn up one day at daylight
it has grown to nearly full size now.

recently i bought a cute little "leopard wrasse" , which turned out to be the same thing.
i was surprised they got along just fine.

The last few week i gradualy repaced al my T5 ligthing.

It was about time !!!!!!!!
The result after  12-14 months in used was obviously showing.

In my opinion lighthing choice is  40% responsible for optimal result in a top level reef tank. Another 40% is the  waterquality and 20% procent luck and effort.
In a  reef tank mainly stocked with sofcorals these figure will be more leveled.

don't mind the center, because of the density and the diminishing T5 light the core was bleaching. i cleaned it up an replaced all my bulbs after 12-14 months (way to late) and now it will grow back in time

Everything is growing into each other:

These pictures of my goniopora's were taken this morning.
The green one is about 2 year old and  an i already made 3 substantial frags (more full corals)
The red one i have for 3 years now

I have never  dosed manganese supplements, so i am wondering how this will improve when i start to do so.
Some people believe dosing manganese could be beneficial for goniopora's

Thanks for your comment davy.

What grows faster?

The acopora in the middle has nearly completely been encapsulated by the blue montipora digitata and the yellow caliendrum.
I drastically cut back both of the invasive  corals,  to avoid throwing the acropora into the bin in a short while.

Echinophillia Echinata and Lord of the Rings

Both corals are at low ligth conditions because the Reeftop is getting crowded and is taking away al light. it's due time to do some cuttng.
T5 bulbs are now 6-7 months old and it's time for replacement. I wil start doing that gradually in de weeks to come.

(https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7715/17122153212_b2a95bc1b5_z.jpg)

in the wild everything grows over each other... here it's the same
in intervene as less as possible in my tank
i will only intervene if one specie will be lost due to an invasive specie
By observing and pushing the limit, i learn more about coral behaviour.

(https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8821/17097760926_f40fc791ce_c.jpg)

This is the back/shadow side of my tank. The rocks/corals were placed at 2/3 from the front.
It was never my intention to place sps in the back of the tank, but when the front started to get packed with corals , i gradually place some in the back.

(https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8787/17122153012_7190371d3c_c.jpg)

who said soft corals and SPS Corals don't mix in one tank or even side by side?

I will observe this closely...

I always wonder why this seriatopora hystrix won't turn pink, until i got a real pink one which stayed pink. it seems this is a red/purple version.

Although it's now standing in the shadow of the big staghorn colony.i don't think it will ever turn pink.
very soon I will be replacing my bulbs and will do some experimenting with different colors tubes.

After 7,5 months i replaced my T5 bulbs.
It was long overdue and the coral were showing acting out.

A moment to  enjoy

When your tank is running since december 2004 with no periodic waterchanges, you're not throwing just any bottles (which can only poisson your tank) into your tank, not doing waterchanges with faulty batches of reefsalt and continously busy making new water, you do get  a stable reeftank and you do learn more about the dymamics of your reeftank.
Therefore you do have the freedom to do live experiment with 200+ species of corals.

(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160419/81e551b5a88a85fd2361ca4f879238f0.jpg)

When i get this kind of growth and colors with old school T5 tubes,  cheap diy technic and no water changes,
I do think i am doing something right... don't I...?

This picture was taken with a samsung S4A mobile phone.
It would been far more vivid when i use a real camera

Work in progress

I removed a  branch invested with invasive zoanthids sp.
Because i needed the branch i spayed the pest zoanthids with 10% caustic soda an left it there for a few hours. After that i used the highpressure washer to remove the waste.
I used a facemask  all the time

When corals grows like weed, you need to find a purpose for the excess corals.

I just throw some frags in a 200l tank and did some experimenting ...

Now the corals has grown into real colonies i decide to go for butterflies..
After all the corals were sacrificial and they serves a higher purpose.
They opened the door for a healthy "butterfly reef"...

This is now butterfly mania on DSR...

I have over 200 species of corals in this tank.

The Cheatodon Collare

Everytime i see them pecking at a coral is shout with joy.
That'S the only thing keeping them alive, because after a week they still won't accept feeding.

The price of to much growth
The caulastrea broke of and felt on the acan field

I have no way to place it back and fragged it and placed frags in all my tanks

De prijs van teveel groei.
Dan breek de boel zichzelf af als je met een magneet langs gaat.
Dan vallen de koralen om doordat ze te zwaar worden voor het aanhechtpunt.

Deze caulastrea van 1,3 kilo lag ineens bovenop het acan veldje

Pff.... werkaan de winkel.
Aangezien er geen mogelijk is de bol terug te plaatsen, heb ik het helemaal opgeknipt en verspreid over meerdere bakken.

I must say growth is just fine the corals doubled from large frags to full colonies compeeting for space in 5 months time.
The colors of the branching corals look washed out from the sideview.
That's one thing i dislike from this full led setup.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170804/3cd71f7f2b9d8e56ab14de477744a845.jpg)

The top view looks a lot better

This is how led prove to be better looking.
No comparison can be made  with T5 because pictures taken from abobe with T5 will always have problem with reflection  of the bulbs.

What do you do with your surplus of sps corals?

In the waste bin?

https://youtu.be/SMe0C4d8Nz0 (https://youtu.be/SMe0C4d8Nz0)

Or.... do i use it for something else?

Now i feed them to stubborn bufferflies, that won't accept regular food (yet).
Untill they realize regular food is delicious to..

These cheatodons are under my care now:
xanthurus, rafflessi, auriga, declivis, vagabundus,ephippium, Falcula, octofasciatus...

How to get rid of excessive corals

It was time for a small reconstruction of my EZ550reef.

I removed a complete poccilipora ball from the rightfront corner.
Placed 2 hyacinthus pink/tricolore  and a green hystrix

Everything is going just fine.

Because the high grow rate and maintenance with build in T5 bulbs is a real pain in the ass, i am building a new tank lighthing.
This how it is now:

My EZ system is the original design.
It is very easy to view and acces corals from above. The new DIY lighthing will twice the size 2,44m with 16 54watt T5 tubes


Naar het idee van mijn EZ systeem

Nu alleen 2x zo lang.

These corals are growing like a bonsai tree on the bottom of my EZ550Reef.

In het EZ550 systeem groeit deze acro als een soort bonsai op de bodem van de bak.
Het was er tijdelijk neergezet als een enkele tak

These are the same corals 34 weeks earlier.

Only after the picture was taken i appreciate what it realy looked like. I guess sometimes you take things for granted.

My #EZ200 tank @midnight
3 months old with zero waterchanges
Started with recycled excess LR which was just sitting in the garden for a few year now.
I also used tap water to fill the tank, just because i could. Just to add a extra challenge. Or just being lazy..
Within 2 week from  20ppm/0,24ppm 0,2ppm/0,03ppm with EZcarbon dosing and some phosrem used.

Demanding LPS species ???
I don't think so...
After a few week these are nearly exploding(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/cde3561617059cc9601a6669aa81bb1d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/1e58bca7a48442979429c7bc7518709d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/39c2055265876b52e7404777a4a688fb.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/13b0431e282f5684fd9eb381dbdd66a3.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/329ba5f7bbb78074dc3f6cee2b5b909c.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/9ee56887294e23cdc0d92c295be92136.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180509/a38477640361518b5db75f64ae161d21.jpg)

This is my 200 liters butterfly tank today

After i removed a large colony of birdnest i place some random small frag in the empty space. They are slowly scaping the tank again.

The birdnest reached the surface and was to massive to maintain.

I am happy wit the topview, but less happy with the sideview . Full led lighting.

Today is was time to do some gardening in my butterflyreef.
The corals were growing into eachother and towards the surface. Light, flow and space for the fish to swim were getting limited and it was time to do something about it.

A dozen of acropora frogskin frags was the result of "a days work"

Sustainable reefkeeping!

When corals grows like weed in our homes, we must be doing something right.
These frags may one day be our main source of sustainable corals.

Duurzaam aquariumhouden
Als koralen als onkruid groeien bij ons thuis, moet je toch ergens goed bezig zijn.
Deze stekken kunnen op een dag weleens onze hoofdaanvoer van duurzame koralen. zijn.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190119/36a3c2926228dd8b1b4cb68a5bd40030.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190119/d829eeeebb411c2856bb723a341005ae.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190119/cc2aa7fede4e96db71b7a20b102cd1e7.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190119/9f1aaa4c31d52fe0294750be73178b4d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190119/97926d868be2275f3c9d8e444aaec414.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190119/8a2026a8866308b031cae772da092226.jpg)

3 eyecatchers van vandaag
Er zijn elk dag wel een paar koralen die opvallen, door hun uitstraling, verschijning of gewoon anders zijn dan normaal.

Today's eyecatchers
Everyday there are corals that draw my attention. These are today's favourites.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190123/fce4cd03a1141ca7177e7d701a01dfde.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190123/e92c5f1bafc5a613ef458f2cb55cb067.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190123/76a51f75e147ffb1737a2e5c98e7885e.jpg)

Nice to have a fagtank this size.
Altijd leuk als je genoeg ruimte heb om stekken te plaatsen.

Meestal poepbruin en lastig op kleur te krijgen.

Maar onder de juiste omstandigheden een prachtig koraaltje met potentie.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/fa86a3539b48f3e6558ee300f7d6839c.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/fc485c4ceb9e8c3c7981b83600b1d065.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/ad22c91c617be75a6a0089c8df6ec987.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/be8c5120949094ebacc288387303c5c4.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190223/68433f1e6efd06011803db1d93224862.jpg)

It is bulbs replacement day on my EZ550reef!
Replacment of the 6x T5 bulbs should have been done long ago.
4x were 9.5 months old
2x were 14 months old
I saw the colors of the corals on the bottom slowly deteriorate for 3 months. In accordance with the requirement to replace the lamps every 6 months at SPS corals.
While we're at that i also took some top-down pictures


Het is lampen vervang dag voor de EZ550reef!
Het vervangen van de 6x T5 lampen hadden al lang geleden moeten gebeuren.
4x waren 9,5 maand oud
2x waren 14 maanden oud
Ik zag de kleuren van de stekken op de bodem al een 3 maanden langzaam achteruit gaan.  Conform de vereiste om bij SPS koralen de lampen om de  6 maanden te vervangen.

if you don't know better corals do look  like fake artefacts.
They are so beautiful and unreal at their full glory.
That's why is switched to saltwater aquariums in back in  2004 after a lifetime with freshwater tanks.

De Koralen lijken wel nep artefacten. Het is een ware explosie van kleur en groeivormen, daarom ben ik na een hele "carriere" van zoetwater overgestap naar zout in 2004.

Na 4 jaar zonder wissels werken en dit resultaat bereiken is niet slecht.

Het op lange termijn vasthouden van een mooi resultaat is niet voor iedereen weggelegd.
Het vraag om discipline maar vooral om een stukje kennis.

Vaak denk men dat bij een mooi aquarium veel werk gemoeid is.
Het tegendeel is zelfs waar....
Als je dagelijks aan je aquarium klooit, hobbelt je in feite achter de feiten aan. Dan is het tijd voor rust en om goed na te denken wat je wilt bereiken.

Juist door doordacht te werk te gaan heb je stabiliteit, continuiteit en is het onderhoud minimaal. Hierdoor floreren de koralen uiteindelijk.

To much work cleaning the front window also space, flow and light limitation due to this massive coral.
It was time for a small rescape.

Ik was de histrix meer dan zat.

In this timelime you can see how a small frag of the staghorn coral has grown up to the surface, cut down and again grew back to the surface within a few months.

Quote from: glennf on December 17, 2013, 12:45:45 pm
Besides the manual feeding there are 2 feeding timers filled with SPS and LPS food
Each timer can feed twice per 24hours
the fist feed at 6:00 and 18:00
the second feed at 0:00 and 12:00
besides that is is possible to feed randomly bij pressing a button.

Dag Glenn,

Wat geeft u dan precies dagelijks als SPS en LPS voeding?
Het is niet echt duidelijk op te maken op de foto.

Tegenwoordig maak ik het mezelf makkelijk en voer ik alleen nog diepvries voer.

It has been a while since my last posting.
Summertime is my time for outdoorsports and activities.

The reefs are cruising on autopilot and i regularly clean the windows/skimmer/powerfilter and fill up the dosing containers. Nothing exciting...

While working on my rooftop is had a surprise visit from some german reefing friends.
They were totaly surprised by the growthrate of my  EZ550reef and posted this movie.

I realy hate this....

I love the corals, i love the many species, i love the beauty of it all, i love the growth/growthrate.
But the one thing i hate is pruning and the aftermath....
- I hate the work involved.
- I hate it that the tank look like sh@t in the weeks/months after.
- I hate lobbying with the cuttings.

NL:
Het is alweer hoog tijd om te snoeien, want al het koraal zit weer tegen de oppervlakte aan.
Het is is een liefde haat relatie die ik heb met deze bezetting.
Ik vind de species, de kleuren en de groei prachtig, maar als het erop aankomt om te gaan snoei heb ik een hekel aan  hoe dan bak er daarna maanden lang kl@te uitziet.

I did a drastic rescape on the EZ550reef, because it was to much work to maintain.
I hope i can now getaway with another maintenance free year.

Het EZ550reef is drastisch gesnoeid. Ik was het extra onderhoudswerk zo zat.
Hopelijk ga ik nu weer een hele jaar onderhoudsvrij mee.

After the total rescape i introduced a few new species in my EZ550reef.
A good friend took a reefing sabatical and donated all his corals. I promised him that i would take good care of them. if he re-enter the hobby he can pickup all his corals.

So you see not everyone leaf the hobby due too many failure. Some just want to take a break.

NL:
Na de totale rescape heb ik wat nieuwe koralen geintroduceerd.

Een goeie vriend stopte "tijdelijk" met de hobby en schonk al zijn koralen aan mij. Ik deed hem de belofte er goed voor te zorgen en mocht hij weer een aquarium beginnen hij al zijn koralen zo mag ophalen.

Zo zie je dat niet iedereen stop met de hobby door teveel tegenslagen. Sommigen nemen gewoon een pauze voor zichzelf.

Started in november 2018, it was supposed to be a fragtank  for temporary placement of corals pruned from my other tanks.
Now it seems like this has become more than a temporary placement

 I Made some pictures while the lightfixture had to be removed for maintenance.
 The EZ550reef has grown into a full reef again since the last rescape.
 The new species that apparently would be "hard-to-keep corals" are also doing very well.
 The system is so stable that the last measurement I took was already 2 months ago.
 As an experienced aquarist you learn to recognize signals and you can sometimes sit back and enjoy cruising along,  but you must always be aware that it does not turn into overconfidence or neglect.

 This aquarium has been running without regular water changes since 2015.  There was a time when it was thought impossible to do so.  Nowadays it is generally accepted that we can do just fine without it .  More and more manufacturers are now using it as an argument to promote a product.  Waterchanges are great for emergency interventions.  They are not ecological and if you have things well managed certainly not necessary as a regular maintenance method.

Corals are growing like crazy and consuming every bit of nutrients. Daily nutrient dosing were not sufficient and increase dosings without reinforcing the CUC would induce algae growth. So today i introduced some Dispars anthias,  a oximonacanthus longistris and a chelmon rostratus.
The dispars are fun and also a reason to feed more
The longistris is just for fun and the challenge
The chemon is useful to peck away some aptasia.
So we are happy and exited again

What happens if you throw a supposedly dead goniopora in the garden and let it stand all summer in all weathers, then reuse the "stone"  as  "elevation" for another coral? Would it come back to life ???

Wat gebeurt er als je een dood gewaande goniopora in de tuin gooit en de hele zomer in weer en wind laat staan, daarna het "steen" weer hergebruik als "statief" voor een ander koraal?
Zou het toch weer tot leven komen???

4 weeks ago i introduced 10 anthias dispars.
I got the hang of it and this week i introduced another 9pcs of anthias tuka.
I love them

4 weken geleden heb ik 10 anthias-dispars geïntroduceerd.
 Ik heb het onder de knie en deze week heb ik weer 9 stuks anthias tuka geïntroduceerd.
 Ik vind ze geweldig

We are a week further with the Tuka's
 They are picky eaters and still very skinny.
 I Counted seven this morning (I'm missing 2)
 I am very hopeful

 The Dispars are doing very well.  These have now been introduced for 5 weeks (September 18).
 They are well fed and eat very enthousiastically.
 1-2 specimens always seem to hide.
 I am very happy with these dispars

We zijn een week verder met de Tuka's
Ze zijn kieskeurige eters en nog erg mager.
Vanmorgen zeven geteld (ik mis er 2)
Ik ben hoopvol

Met de Dispars gaat het uitstekend. Deze zijn nu 5 weken (18 september) geintroduceerd.
Ze zijn supervet en eten zeer enthousiast.

De dispars zijn er alle 10 nog en eten goed mee.
De tuka's zijn er van de 9 maar 5 over. Ze eten wel mee maar blijven mager en kieskeurig.
Vooral de eerste 3 weken
Afgelopen week heb ik een tenneti en triostegus erbij geplaatst.
Er is leven in de brouwerij

The officetank has always been my testing system for new ideas, so now for EZ2Go for a year.  It has therefore been renamed to EZ2Goreef.
 190 liters, minimal technology, no sump and no skimmer, no water changes since 2015
 The lighting: GHL Mitras LX7206 (full LED)

 EZ2Go is a new two-part dosing system that I recently developed. You only need EZBuffer for this system.

De burobak is sinds een jaar en dag mijn test systeem, dus nu sinds een jaar voor EZ2Go. Het is  daarom omgedoopt naar het EZ2Goreef.
190 liter, minimaal techniek, geen sump en geen afschuimer, sinds 2015 geen waterwissels
De verlichting: GHL Mitras LX7206 (full LED)

EZ2Go is een nieuwe tweedelig doseersysteem die ik onlangs ontwikkeld heb.
Samen met EZBuffer wordt voorzien in de noodzakelijke behoefte.

ENG:
Exciting!
With the frag700reef I finally have the confidence in fullLED to get the last 8x T5 tubes out.
Replaced 8x54 watt T5 for 4x54 watt LED strips
There were already 7x54watt LED strips in it, now the total is 11x54watt.

The total power consumption goes from 950 watts to 750 watts

 I am not completely satisfied yet, but that will be because the corals still has to adjust to the new lighting. In the near future I will be playing with different color combinations to get the most out of this reef.

NL:
Spannnend !
Bij de #frag700reef heb ik eindelijk het vertrouwen in fullLED om de laatste 8x T5 buizen eruit te halen.
8x54 watt T5 vervangen voor 4x54watt LEDstrips
Er zaten al 7x54watt LEDstrips erin , nu is het totaal 11x54watt.

Het totaal energie verbruik gaat van 950 watt naar 750 watt

Ik ben nog niet helemaal tevreden, maar dat zal komen omdat het aquarium zich nog moet omkleuren naar de nieuwe verlichting.
Ik zal de komende tijd gaan spelen met verschillende kleur combinaties om het maximale uit deze rif te halen.

I haven't cleaned my sump for quite a while.
I estimate about 2-3 year of dirt have settled at the bottom of the ez550reef sump.
I see no ill effect on the tank
I have near zero equipment in my sump atm
November 2019 i pulled out my skimmer and have been running skimmerless since then.
The sump is just a mixing container and a place to hold extra equipment like heater etc...(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210122/df3c566aeb667b48474904ba51050dc6.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210122/66a8f5229d2a04f3ccb34a7a5cef9c3d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210122/9bdcd00486cd37ede930feefb139efd5.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210122/a60a1d28a67182d1dc94d6aa26ec0180.jpg)

have you cleaned your sump with your Powerfilter?  or completely polished?  since last week I have also removed my skimmer and placed an extra Powerfilter in the sump

Today a small part of the reef was pruned.  This was essential to keep the reef healthy.
Afterwards it's hardly visible that it has been pruned.
 In the meantime, 15 buckets with 200 decent sized "ECOFrags" have been made and brought to the LFS.

Vandaag een klein deel achterin het rif gesnoeid. Dit was hoog nodig om het rif gezond te houden.
Na de snoeibeurt is het nauwelijks zichtbaar dat er gesnoeid is.
Intussen zijn er wel 15 emmer met 200 "ECOstekken" van een fatsoenlijke formaat gemaakt en naar de LFS gebracht.

Feeling inspired by NPS corals (again)
This time i put them in my sump, with some slight modifications.
Yellow menella
Purple menella
Tubastrea Faulkerni

Je (weer) geïnspireerd voelen door NPS-koralen.
 Deze keer heb ik ze in mijn opvangbak gedaan, met enkele kleine aanpassingen.
 Gele menella
 Paarse menella

Just finished installing my S21Ultra and took some pictures

The tank is also settling  from the transition from T5/LED to FullLED  lighting.

I love it

Nope... DSR  werkt voor geen meter haha...
Het zal wel gefotoshopped zijn

Great colors and healthy corals is the reward for knowledge and commitment

What's the sense of keep corals in the dark?

- When you turn on the light you get a color explosion
- this is the most energy efficient (cheapest)   reeftank to maintain (once you managed the technique to keep them alive).(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/e038aacf0ffff67488051ff217c20cf1.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/22a7e495d5146c68900a83f8f2095124.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/3b3c10cd4f8dce3bb907ebb949c58913.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/98d7312504d5b52873ca956de9b4e5db.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/516954be16c6750935b55a011eab7761.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210326/6e2271bf8c9ae1a6b93ad3dc85ad8cb5.jpg)

After i removed all equipment from the sump, because these are not required anymore in todays new dosingsystems, it was a useless container which only required extra maintenance. Now i found a usefull application of the sump. Make a bypass on the MRP and place a light on it an turn it into a fragtank.

Nadat ik alle apparatuur uit de sump had verwijderd, omdat deze niet meer nodig zijn in de huidige nieuwe doseersystemen, was het een nutteloze container die alleen maar extra onderhoud vergde. Nu heb ik een nuttige toepassing van de sump gevonden. Maak een bypass op opvoerpomp, plaats er verlicht boven en maak er een stekkenbak van.

frag700reef:

It's growing insanely fast. I can't keep up with the pruning anymore. Every time I cut 1 branch, I get 2-3 new ones in return.

Het groeit waanzinnig hard. Ik kan het snoeien niet meer bijhouden. Elke keer als ik 1 tak knip, krijg ik er 2-3 nieuwe voor terug.

The old DSR1200reef is emptied, cleaned, re-sealed and given a new life. It will be renamed the Treef1200.
All in all, this aquarium has been running from 2004-2021 without any changes worth mentioning.
This makes it one of the best known tanks, which started a trend that cannot be reversed. Partly because of this tank, it is impossible to imagine the average seawater shop in the Netherlands without DSR.
I am still surprised that rearranging a tank gives such a great boast of inspiration.

De oude DSR1200reef is leeggemaakt, schoongemaakt, opnieuw gekit verplaatst en krijg een nieuw leven. Het wordt omgedoopt naar de Treef1200.
Al met al heeft dit aquarium van 2004-2021 zonder noemenswaardige wissels gedraaid.
Daarmee één van de bekendste bakken waardoor een trend is ingezet die niet meer te keren is. DSR is mede door deze bak niet meer weg te denken in het assortiment van de gemiddelde zeewaterwinkel in nederland e.o..
Ik ben toch verbaasd dat het  weer nieuw inrichten van een bak zo een grote boast aan inspiratie geeft.

December 15, 2021. #Treef1200
Soft corals do not always have to be brown.
It is simple but 100% satisfying to work on. In the meantime, experimenting with new LED strips, while waiting for the new JMB LEDs to arrive.

Softkoralen hoeven niet altijd  bruin te zijn.
Het is simpel maar geeft 100% voldoening om eraan te werken. Intussen experimenteren met nieuwe ledstrips, in afwachting de nieuwe JMB leds die nog binnen moeten komen.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211215/4511e9e2f04e8a1dfb9ae0c8f8f610ce.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211215/dfe9ab55423bac46f10c25ae0d1f7d8d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211215/42ac89aaca2d4e26152827f04c6b6e47.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211215/ff93523e196cc2cd557a9392e4dc6473.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211215/185ac3c1d82c88428916cb5c099a086f.jpg)

Het heeft  even geduurd, naar vandaag eindelijk de inspiratie gevonden om de standaard van de Treef1200 een keer af te werken.
Het staat er al sinds december '21. Met het mooie weer is het nu heerlijk klussen in de tuin.

It took a while, but today I finally found the inspiration to finish the stand of the Treef1200.
It has been there since December '21. With the nice weather, it is now nice to work in the garden.

Let the sealant harden, remove the clamps and hang the doors, then we are happy again.....

Het kit laten uitharden, klemmen verwijderen en de deuren afhangen dan zijn we weer happy.....

So ... the clamps have been removed and the doors have been hung up. I like it this way. Practical and no loose panels that get in the way.


Zo ..  de lijmklemmen zijn verwijderd en de deuren afgehangen. Ik vind het mooi zo. Praktisch  en geen losse panelen die in de weg staan.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220618/420a486ed66e7c32cc160780ca55311b.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220618/13974e08a892d888fb2bb04deb51e92c.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220618/cad926bc11d1f8b1a655120630d7f073.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220618/409d80f0c89338620602ea5f6e4f42a8.jpg)

I am so happy i worked on the finishing last week. I enjoy every second i look at the tank now

Ik ben zo blij dat ik vorige week aan de afwerking heb gewerkt. Ik geniet van elke seconde dat ik nu naar de tank kijk(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220622/61cdb261a45d1a83b8af0a4bb4ff706d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220622/97fbc28b818e6f21bffa7963dfef88d4.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220622/eed99a0cea463055e060a3e24726f37d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220622/c8cf564adebc781ab80e72e49b6e1a01.jpg)

If I look at my tank for 2.5 minutes, all the stress just flows away.

The first pruning is a fact.
The green and red monti plates had completely taken over the left side. I couldn't reach anything anymore and changing the PF became a real hassle. It also became a challenge to ensure a good flow.

De eerste snoeibeurt is een feit.
De groene en rode montiplaten hadden de linkerkant helemaal ingenomen. Ik kon nergens meer bij en de PF verschonen werd een heel gedoe. Tevens werdt het een uitdaging om goede stroming te waarborgen.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220623/2c388daf24e824df21139b307efdf456.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220623/a8a251bab8b2e112ab15801680f4cc7c.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220623/649784e13a96443e4c71a79f5ce98c74.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220623/6fd7993e53fe3194d1241eee2ddd0f13.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220623/d5e099ce41b1ba9e2dcbd69960b9656f.jpg)

This is the #TReef1200,  14 months from the start.
I love the easiness of this system. Cruising along with simple corals bring more joy, because it not always about the bigger, best or most expensive.

Dit is de #TReef1200, 14 maanden vanaf het begin.
Ik hou van het gemak van dit systeem. Cruisen met eenvoudige koralen brengt meer vreugde, want het gaat niet altijd om het grotere, beste of duurste.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/4a51888dab86a80c27558497a83db5ce.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/426f238d67818d01f03834ed4bc7f246.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/907879d5d336fce1d3f7332a0c160dc7.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/9eb17dbc9aa90c4073115190cbb8752a.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/12e9a2426c16cbe51cf97251b7d8805d.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/65e0bc78757b001386b8b21c65951da3.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/295d024876fa9ec85b63d8ad19a2a970.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/8e3f9c61b3e3a9a59507164176c423cc.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/d4035ae2b69e66ecb350a65b63b86212.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/0a155b863a0a730a561534bd65b71d4a.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/73c961924e103ba79029833daf79d578.jpg)(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20230117/73c442f6146ad77f171533d3340742b6.jpg)

Historie:
1- In 2012-2013 is er op forums minitieus vastgelegd hoe (full/classic) DSR ontstaan en ontwikkeld is als een productlijn.
2- In 2016-2017 is de EZ-Lijn ontwikkeld
Heden:
De Treef1200 draait al sinds de opbouw in december 2022 op een experimentele allinone oplossing.
De "T" staat voor Total. Daarvoor was het al 1 jaar eerder ontwikkeld en getest op de  T140reef, want we niet gaan over één nacht ijs. Het is dus vanaf "scratch" getest en het resultaat mag er wezen. Alle kinderziektes en verassingen zijn eruit. Nu is het tijd gekomen om de knop door te hakken en het eindresultaat uit te brengen.
Een paar mooie foto's maken, in lightroom en photoshop bewerken, DTP'en,  wat freubelen met etiketjes, IBC's, vulmachines, flesjes en jerrycans en je hebt wat.....
3- anno maart 2023 wordt eindelijk de "TotalReefCare" (TRC) uitgerold!

New update, everything is going just fine. Some large colonies has been removed to make space.

De Treef1200

Dit aquarium is van nostalgische waarde.

Dit is de zoetwaterbak uit 1994 die in 2004 omgebouwd is naar een zeewaterbak.

Daar is zoveel over geschreven en het staat aan de basis van mijn zeewater successen.

In okt 2021 is de inhoud (met water en al) overgezet naar de nieuwe 3100 liter panoramareef.

In dec 2021 vind ik het zonde om weg te gooien en het koste mij minder moeite de kitnaden opnieuw te sealen dan de boel af te voeren, dus is het weer gevuld en heeft het een nieuwe plek en naampje gekregen.

Het is sindsdien het referentie aquarium voor het 1 kanaals doseersysteem geworden.


Vandaag ben ik weer happy met wat ik kan delen.

Na een lange pause is het weer tijd dit stoffige dagboek bij te werken.
Om te beginnen met wat inspirerende foto's

Bluelights
i can understand you wanting to leave the blue lights on all day. But do the corals agree with that?

ik snap het wel dat je de blauwe lampen de hele dag aan wilt laten. Maar snappen de koralen dat?
