Hi Everyone,
I've been lurking on these forums for a while and finally decided it was time to make a tank thread and introduce myself.
This tank is an upgrade from a 12" cube that sprung a leak in November.
Great excuse to upgrade, so in December I setup this tank. Most of my corals died when the old tank leaked. I was able to save 2 acros, all the zoas and a few montis.
I have learned so much from all the people in the R2R community. Looking forward to getting to know more people in the reefing world.
Any constructive criticism is welcomed!
Tank Specs:
■Tank: PicO Aquariums 15x15" low iron cube predrilled w/ overflow box
■Filtration: 13†x 12†x 10†AA Custom Sump w/ 4†filter sock
■Reactor: Nextreef MR1 Shorty w/ Rowaphos
■Heater: Cobalt Neotherm 50W
■Water movement: Tunze silence 1073.05 return pump & 2 x MP10w
■Skimmer: Bubble Magus NAC3.5
■ATO: Tunze 3155 ATO w/ 5g reservoir
■Doser: Bubble Magus triple doser
■Lighting: Nanobox Duo w/ Storm Controller
■Fish: Sailfin Blenny (Larry)
■Coral: Monti and Zoa dominant
■Creatures: Snails, hundreds of mini brittles, a few hermit crabs, 1 peppermint shrimp, 2 coco worms and one hitchhiker limpet
I dose 13ml E.S.V. B-ionic 2 part, 3ml E.S.V. Magnesium daily, 2 drops ELOS Pro skimmer and 3 drop ELOS Omega daily, 1 drop iodine & 1ml potassium weekly
15% W/C every Saturday
I feed the tank a rotating assortment of reef roids, coral frenzy and reef chili in the evening after the sunset.
Here are some pictures of the progress:
