Hello from Iowa!

Excited to be back in the hobby now that I have purchased a home to setup a more permanent site for my tanks. This system has been operational for about 6mo now and has proven promising! Most all of my corals are adjusting wonderfully apart from about half of my zoas... Not sure what their deal is but they are unhappy with the move to say the least.

I have been in the hobby for around 4 years in total and have moved from very bare bones simply setups to more intricate and self-maintaining systems such as this. Still have plenty of bugs to work out but enjoying every step of the way :)

Frag System:
-Dual Stacked 180g Eurobraced Displays (96x24x18ish)
-Bottom 180g functions as 2/3 Frags and 1/3 Sump
-Vectra L1 Return
-4 Icecap Gyres
-Uline Pallet rack stand
-Radion XR30 and XR15Pros Lighting
-Full Apex Autonomy and Control w/ Trident
-Kalk Reactor (Calcium Reactor ready when necessary)
-Dosing Acropower and feeding Mysis and Pods


Display System: (Coming Soon)
-120g Lowboy 3/4" Starfire Display (96x24x10sih)
-Stand TBD
-Vectra M1 Return
-Dedicated 33g Long Sump w/ water mixing in from Frag System for stability
-Radion XR15Pros Lighting

Parameters:
Salinity: 34.5 - 35 ppt
PH: 8.3 - 8.37
Temp: 77.5 - 78.2F
Alk: 8.3 - 8.5dKh
