Hi all. This tank is my first ever reef tank and it is currently 3 yrs old. For the first year i only had 2 clowns and a pajama cardinal. The only corals were some mushrooms and i had some dragons breath macroalgae (will attach a pic below). I had some basic equipment (cheap light, pump) and little to no knowledge on keeping corals. Fast forward 2 yrs im currently keeping an lps dominated reef with about 10 sps frags (acros, montis, pocis). For supplementation im currnetly dosing red sea (mg, K, Fe, abd ca), diy alk solution (randys recipe), and aquaforest mn (manganese). Thanks for reading!
Equipment :
