The 1200 gallon Rocky mountain Reef Aquarium of Stephen Hurlock is a very special one for us, and a very important one for Reef Builders. I was fortunate enough to be involved in the design and construction of the 1200 mountain reef since way before I started working here at RB. By the time I wrote my first post here on RB this reef tank was just around a month old, and a month laterthe first video of the mile high reef aquariumwas posted way back in September 2008.
同时,这个十英尺的半岛礁坦克一直是许多礁石建筑商故事的主题。我们用它来制作十英尺长的回旋,我们已经测试了ReefBrite LEDs,珊瑚Sky SL2 LEDs,the Avast Marine self cleaning head,Vortech MP60was tested on this reef and theVortech MP10在这个坦克面前获得了第一个Handson视频。史蒂夫·赫洛克(Steve Hurlock)的礁坦克(Reef TankTuamotu Maxima Clams,True Acropora Echinata, will the真正的Springeri dam selvish请游泳和Symphyllia wilsoni。不用说,这座1200加仑半岛礁的25英尺远景对帮助RB Flex的水族馆肌肉在最高水平上发挥了作用。
Ever since that first posting I’ve been absolutely pestered for the last two years to get an update of this reef tank and now it’s finally here. You must watch the video that was postedtwo years agoto truly appreciate how phenomenal the growth has been in this aquarium. The combination of very good and strong water flow, combined with the chemical inertia of 1200 gallons and perhaps even the altitude have grown the staghorns over 18 inches and parts of the tank are well beyond overgrown. Now that it’s time to consider some bushwacking of the reef, I made a special trip to visit this high altitude reef on the two year anniversary of it’s conception to make this video. We would tell you more about this tank and how it runs but we’ve already committed all of our notes to thenext great book of reefing托尼·瓦尔加斯(Tony Vargas)将很快提供。
