Watchman gobie
Various CuC

Rasta, Gatorade, Green Bay packers, Michael Fox, Armor of god, hornet and orange oxide, radioactive dragon eyes zoas

2 Aussie blastos
Frog spawn
Gsp
Neon hairy mushroom
Rock flower nem
Stylo
3 Chypastrea
Baby Yuma mushroom

Pompom macro in display

orbit Marine pro light custom cut into lid to keep dog hair out
In sump fuge with cheato
Added a FX4 external filter to increase water volume and stabilize swings with all the coral. This is in and output in back sump area.
soon to add a doser as it is starting to go through a lot of Ca, and little Mg. Stabilizing the Alk with third line


Lessons learned are too many to list but should have just gone with a 30 gallon right from the start. This is my grow out tank for after I move next year and graduate to a 40 gal.

Great looking tank! I have the same one (and started with the same tank). I missed the Frag Farmer’s Market on Sat. Though… something came up and I couldn’t get out there. Looks like you did well.
