Drs2140 Nano SPS Reef

Drs2140 · Jul 28, 2016

Hello fellow reefers,
I have been a longtime lurker and because my local forum has been somewhat dormant I decided to get more active here. I started this tank in spring of 2012 and there has been a lot of ups and downs, the most significant was a power outage in the winter of 2014. I did a revamp and decided to go full sps. I believe the biggest limitation has been the small amount of water volume.
I figure a tank thread is a good way to get started on the forum.
Here is an overview of my reef tank:
Equipment:

Gutted RSM130
Radion pro with T5 retrofit kit
2x Vortech MP10
Tunze 9002
BRS GFO/Carbon reactor
BubbleMagus Doser
Ehiem Jager heater
Tunze Ozmolator

Coral:

Montipora Digitata
Encrusting Montipora
Montipora Capricornis
Acropora
Pocillopora
Stylophora
Ricordea
Yuma
Zoanthids
Mini maxi anemones
Rock flower anemones

Fish:

2x Occelaris clownfish
Springeri Dottyback

My hopes with this thread is to learn from others who have sps dominated nanos and also share what I have learned!

My camera is on the fritz for some reason so I'll have to settle for some crappy iPhone pictures for now. I had some issues with high alkalinity and 0 nutrients that really took a toll on my coral, that is why some coral had to be chopped and replied healthy parts. Hopefully everything should bounce back.
