Admittedly, i’ve had this tank running for a while I just have never posted it. When I say a while I mean over a year. But that’s okay since there’s not much to catch up on, it is still a really simple tank with not much in it. I have definitely made some mistakes along the way that have lead it to be how it is now. Still a lot of ugly algae since I recently made a huge mistake that caused a bloom of just about everything that’s still in the tank (Algae wise). Nitrates!!! (Finally got that back into check). Only thing that didn’t bloom was my fish and corals, ended up losing some. I will post some blue light photos for now and on the weekend i’ll get a good white light photo for you guys. It’s a journey no matter where you are in the hobby.

Sounds like you are enjoying and learning in the process, and I love those Zoads! What type of tank is that 50g cube? (Who makes it?)
I definitely am. Thank you, they are some nice zoas! The tank is made by SC Aquariums.

Update: Finally posting the white light photo, have been very busy lately but still doing my best to take care of the tank I just couldnt do all the extra stuff like post on here. Fractured my wrist so that’s made everything harder. The photo is 1-2 weeks old and my urchin has done some work on the rocks since then so parts of it look a little bit better.
