What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
@Usarmy227 Do you have a coral list posted somewhere? I love the look. I'm interested in seeing what your coral plans are for the future as well.
I want to do soft and LPS corals only!

I love Zoas, torches, hammers, gsp, pulsing Xenia, Gonis, etc.
Once I get enough I’m going to stock up

I wanted a hydros doser or some of the bulk powdered all for reef. Don't stock either. I thought about going with maybe some amino acids or something like that? But not sure.
 
What does your tank need?
I mean, currently my filtration skimming is set. I think I have too much flow but I have it cranked for cyano control(although that isn't seemingly to help..) and my freezers full of frozen food and i currently have 3 different kinds of pellets and I have benereefs powdered coral foods. Thought about some LPS pellets? But besides that I'm not sure lol
 
Yes trigger loves shrimp.
They shouldn’t eat the shrimp that cleans them, oh wait, it’s feeds them, never mind. ;)
