3 Smatfarms 5g lights
HOB Octo skimmer
Fluval FX4 cannister filter
Jeboa Gyro wave maker
Current e-flux power heads

just added a Nero5

Green Star Polyp
Kenya Tree

Powder brown tang
Clown tang
2 Benggai Cardinals
2 green chromis
sand sifting goby
lyretail anthia

cleaner shrimp

cleanup crew including 2 tiger conches
variou snails and hermit crabs
 
Watching. Planning on starting a new build thread with a budget 75g w/20g sump build when I get the time. Document all the overspent and underspent things and a list of everything I end up actually using
 
Got any pictures of the tank?
