From snorkelling in the Red sea to a reef sample in my living room

Koty · Feb 3, 2021

Hello everybody I just started (my tank cycle) about a month ago. I have a 420-lit total aquarium with a sump inc refuge. My aim is a reef tank. New to reefing but not to aquariums (used to grow black water Apistos). I am a scientist in Tel Aviv university Med school and I my field is cell biology. I actually work using fluorescent proteins (from jellyfish). I am fascinated by the challenge of having a modest sample of a reef at home. I also wonder how my strong background will contribute to my experience in reef keeping. this is my tank. Pic taken some time ago. Since than Few more rocks were added and there is only one female molly with 10-15 offsprings and lots of brown algae on the sand and rocks.
