Hey all,
Got back into the hobby during quarantine with a biocube 16 gallon. Tried to start a 55 gallon back in high school but failed miserably lol. Been browsing the forums ever since I bought this tank in April and have learned a lot and am excited to join the community!
The 16 was intended to be lps & softies only as kind of a "grow" tank for an eventual upgrade in a year or two but the addiction took over and I have a couple of sps frags now and am already looking into upgrading to a reefer nano for a little more room and better lighting and the fact I've learned that AIOs aren't really for me.
Here's my setup and stocking list for those who are interested:
Lighting: Stock Leds
Powerhead: Aqamai KPS
Heater: Neo-Therm 100 Watt
Accessories: Intank media basket (filter floss, pom pom macro, purigen, phosbond), inTank fuge light

Inverts:
3 Red-Legged Hermits (Thor, Loki & Odin)
2 Margarita Snails
