4 years old 10 gallons mix reef nano

Yes, I'm back. From 2013, I was playing with a 150-gallon reef tank until 2018, but I had to give it up due to family reasons. In 2019, my heart still couldn't let go, so I started this 10-gallon tank, and I've been passionate about corals ever since.

Looking good! How many lbs of live rock do you use? Planning of having something around that size
 
Wow, very nice! I don’t think you have the room to add anything else. You have filled every square inch!
