Update on my 150 gallon acrylic discus tank

[Lenin]

So on March I started setting up my 150 gallon acrylic tank http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?94919-I-m-Baaaacckkk-150g-Build&highlight=, and I wanted to give an update, here's a small video of my tank and my discus and how they're doing.

The discus came from Mike Beals these are:

They're probably larger now than when I got them
5 High Bodied Eruption Leopards 5" from November's shipment
6 Valenties about 4.5"

The rest came from my guppy project http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showthread.php?96133-The-guppy-project&highlight=

OK, so it's a 150G 48"x24"x30", it's a tall tank but I do not need to vacuum it since I have a tunze powerhead that turns on 3 times a day and creates a good flow to get the solids into the sump, the led is basic not high output and it's on from 6:30 am to 9:00 pm, from 12 am to 8 PM a dual high output t5's are one to give a nice and bright view with this schedule I do not get any algae, the sand bed is play sand from lowes used it before and it works great it keeps solids on top so the powerhead can pick them up, the discus are 6 Valentines they're about 6", also there are 5 High Body Eruption Leopards about 6" also, 3 blue diamonds about 4.5"-5" and one Red turq. Also six cories julies for cleaning up leftovers, 3 Albino bristlenose Plecos, and 2 red/blue colombian tetras had more but the died still don't know why.

For Filtration is a sump with a wet/dry, it all first goes into a Micron Sock, then to a series of Matala mats, into bioballs, then a chamber of Eheim ceramic rings and finally into the refugium that only has the heaters and a final matala mat before going into the pump

I am liking the tall tank looks really nice also like how you have the driftwood in there.
