After being out of the hobby for the last 10 years I got the itch to get a tank up and going again.

I've always been into the AOI Nan's and love the KISS method so I went with a Biocube 16. Added the Intank media chamber and a Koralia powerhead and got it rocking and rolling.

Added 10# of dry rock, 5# of live rock from the LFS, 10# of Caribsea sand and a bottle of Bio-Spira. Added the Clown the next day and flew through the cycle.


Current corals:
Green Polyp Birdsnest
3 Florida Ricordia
2 red/pink Mushrooms
1 Frogspawn
1 Pink Yuma
1 Favia
2 Blasto Welsi
2 Acans
1 Green Candycane

On the Zoa/Paly front I can't remember all of the different ones but I know I have:
Rasta's
Nuclear Green
Purple Death
Magician Paly
Blue Hornet
Utter Chaos

My plan is for the zoa's to grow on the disks, frag them and get them slowly to the rockwork and let them grow out while keeping the frag rack as a backup.


Planning to also add more SPS. Can't wait to see it grow!

A decent pic of my Onyx clown.

Thinking of a Blenny and a Firefish to finish off the stocking, not for a while though.
