Got bit by the bug again when I visited an LFS near by where I currently moved to. Fast forward a few months, some gears started turning in my head. Slowly put together a plan and set it into motion. So far im very happy to be back in the hobby. Ive learned a lot from this forum and from my previous reefing endeavors. Here is a few shots of the progress so far. Tank has been running for just over 3 months.

Tank is an Icecap 10 gallon AIO
Lights AI Hydra 26
Skimmer: Icecap K1 Neo. (Fits chamber like a glove)
BRS CO2 scrubber
Hygger pumps 1 gyre and 1 puck in the back wall.
Currently dosing 72ml a day of kalkwasser via Kamoer.
Hydros 4 controller
ReefBreeders ATO

Alk: 8.5
Cal: 400
Mag: 1220 (dosing to bring it up)


Share your thoughts and suggestions. Thanks everyone.

I wanted to see how it was going with the ice cap tank. I currently have a lifegard 8 gallon that is a good tank but the overflow slots are too narrow and I had to really dial down my pump. I was wondering what pump you are running in the back? I was thinking of pairing the icecap tank with a mighty jet pumping 326 gph.
