Hello there, this tank has been set up since Sep 2022 and is my first step back into the hobby after a long break. It was supposed to be a very low-maintenance system with a couple of clowns and maybe an anemone, but the bug bit me quickly and now it has a handful of acros (nothing fancy) and has re-sparked the passion.
My short-term aspirations for the tank are to upgrade my lighting from the RedSea LED 50 to an Ecotech xr15 Blue and swap the Hydros controller with an Apex. Automation is important to me because I travel a lot for work, and I have had a lot of issues with them staying connected to the Wi-Fi.
