tank was set up a bit quicker than I thought it would be . Tank runs really good considering it was built for fresh water . plenty of flow coming from the pump lighting could be a little better but at the moment ok .

Tried a couple of coral from uk eBay cheap ones just to see what you get . They came well packed up and a heat pack I ordered them 3pm Wednesday and they arrived Thursday morning 10am so very fast delivery. Opened the box and they were in small jars the only complaint was when in postage they could move around upside down side to side one was the right way up and looked very healthy and the other one up side down with the plug on to of it . And all shrivelled up not looking healthy. So dipped them then heated them up to my tank temp and then dripped them until salinity of both very close. The one that was up right is doing great and the upside one don’t think it is going to make it but they were cheap and I have had my first corals by post delivery Hm let’s see half and half at the moment. I have to more corals coming to cheap as always let see how theses turn up but a different dealer. Will keep yous posted . Photos attached

Love Fluval's stuff, would definitely use a Fluval Flex if I had one lying around haha
This little tank runs ok for what i paid for it couldn’t go wrong. I need to sort lighting maybe take the lid off and put a glass with a hang on light was looking on fluval parts they sell lights for it .
