So a little history first I guess. I've had some catastrophes with tanks dunce I moved to Massachusetts. Everything from blown out glass around bulkheads. To reefkeeper and heater malfunctions. Over the past year or so I've had this shallow 30g running. It basically has housed a bunch of recovering corals. Slowly they have been coming back. I've been acquiring new corals since Christmas. And I know I shouldn't have a yellow tang in such I small tank. Someone was supposed to pick him up when I switched tanks and never did. I know I know. I have to figure a way to get him out soon. Anyways. The system itself is
30g Deep Blue rimless 25x24x12
10g DIY sump
BubbleMagus Curve 5 skimmer
Innovative Marine minimax reactor running bio pellets
Marine magic 3 channel doser
Jebao WP 4
Lighting was formally DIY LEDs now 2 4x24w T5

Tank looks amazing. I love my db30... just wish it was full of coral again... soon
 
Yeah. I think I'll eventually end up building a led/T5 hybrid. Unless I could miraculously afford the ATI hybrid.
 
Gorgeous tank and that meat coral is amazing!
Thanks. I got the meat coral from rare reef when they were having a sale a while ago. If I remember correctly I paid like $85 for it. I have to say it is one of my favorite LPS. I just could never bring myself to pay $250+ for one.
