d2mini's "Essential Focus" Mixed Reef Build

d2mini · Mar 30, 2017

On 3/23 I posted a pic of my empty tank.
Today, just 7 days later, d2mini is back in the game!

Here's a preview as I finalize the scape and start getting some coral back in the tank.
I lost most of my SPS and what I did save is mostly brown.
Most LPS are ok though.
Still have a few small pieces in the office nano.

And some more shots of some TBS goodies...

Now I need some fish!
Picking up a Davinci from a local reefer tomorrow.

Glade your back at it again enjoy following your tank. Like the lay out and sure the sps you still have will bounce back fast. Let this time go well

Conjure up your inner Steven Tyler and say, "I'm back in the saddle again!" :cool:

That white Nem is amazing!

Dennis I know you haven't had much time and you also had other struggles but I was curious what your thoughts of the G4's are up to this point.

Before the poop hit the fan I had posted this thread which should give you some idea.

Until that point, they were doing well. So with frags and mini colonies I'd say I had been pretty happy with them.
Now I'm taking several steps back so it will be a while before I can really continue any kind of evaluation.

So sorry on your losses, been watching for awhile. I have also gone to triton and having stability problems. I am so glad you made the move to reboot, it so devastating to lose fish and have a tank that is not up to your standards. Your reboot looks great, thank you for all the pictures and the feedback sir!

The new scape looks super natural and I love the valley it's got. And that rock anemone.. oooof! My gosh, stunning.
