It’s a softy and lps tank with a few hermits, snails and a sexy shrimp. It’s a refitted petco all in one.

Best pic I have is from a a few weeks ago. Still going though a bit of an ugly phase but everything seems healthy and my parameters are still in check. Snails are doing a good job of keeping the initial algae growth down. Got a few chitons from DNA in Carrollton and they seem to only go after diatoms.

Hello from Farmersville! I have a nano Waterbox 15 that has been set up for about 1yr 8months. My tank just started to take off about 6 months ago (my fault, I been busy) here’s some before and after pictures, I have since moved/added some things and will post an up to date photo tomorrow when the corals are out. It’s been quite the journey. Nice to meet y’all!

Nice! I’m still waiting on my Zoas to open looked all around the web and have no clue why they aren’t having a good time. All my lps and mushrooms have grown quite a bit since I added them. My last attempt at making them happy has been to put them lower in the tank been a week or so now so we’ll see if that’s the fix.
