hello everyone. I am a new member to reef2reef but have lurked on here off and on for a few years.
I have 2 tanks, first is a 17 gallon SW tank with 20 pounds of Caribsea Caribbean Live black sand, 25 pounds of live rock, 2 Koralia 425 power heads, 1 heater, and 1 Kessill 160 LED light. I am not using a skimmer, refugium, filters, or sump. I do 4 gallon water changes once a week with Instant Ocean Reef Crystals. I dose using BRS 2 part when needed. This was my first tank and was started in May of 2010 as a mixed reef. I changed over from a mixed reef to an anemone tank with 1 green and one rainbow after I started my second tank in August of 2014. There is a pair of Occellaris clowns, a sexy shrimp, and a few snails/hermits, and Dragons breathe macro algaeCorals include Pulsing Xenia, Green Hammer, Yellow Frogspawn, scrambled eggs zoas,
green striped clove, yellow striped clove and Vargas Cespitularia.
I also have a 40g breeder that has been running since August of 2014.
