Took over a tank couple weeks ago and finally get chance to set it up. It’s my first tank ever.

The tank is now filled with live rocks from previous owner and a few invertebrates (snails and 2 emerald crab)

quipments:
Tank: Redsea 250 with Ice Cap 30 sump
Light: Radion Xr15 g4 (will upgrade to xr30 later)
Skimmer: Omega Vertex 150 Skimmer
Wave maker: plan to get mp40 (currently using a small pump to keep water flow)

I’m also getting more dry rocks and will be doing aquascape when I have time
 
Great looking setup!! Where did you get that neat caddle on the side?

Amazon. Just search for “slim storage cart” and pick one you like. You can also buy two and get it to 8 stacks, but I don’t have that many stuff right now
 
Finally get change to do aquascape. Took me entire day to finish. The purple rock were there to introduce batteries. The plan is to get rid of them when the new rock is cycled

Also added two clown fish and a green chromis.
 
Aquascape looks really good!!
