Im new to r2r forum's. The corals and rocks are from my 6 year old 55 gal tank, had to move last January. I decided to upgrade to a 75 gal tank and black sand. There is a refugium/skimmer that hangs of the rear of the glass 75 gal tank. I also run a chiller and a canister filter.

I use to have a 6 inch deep sand bed of white argonite sand and i never really had to dose any calcium or alk buffer, it was vary self-efficient. That is until i changed the sand bed to black sand from my last move, now my auto buffering is lacking. When i move to Oregon back to white sand i will with.

My last picture a couple days before everything had to go, you can see my diy fish trap that worked well.
