Hello, new to the hobby.

Hello y'all,

I'm new to the hobby and looking to learn as much as possible so that I'm one day able to setup my dream peninsula reef tank. Currently own a deskmate 4.8 that's been running since December of '22. Looking forward to chit chatting with y'all.

Thank you everyone! Already feeling welcomed.

Don't know if this is the place to ask and I might be jumping ahead but eventually I would like to add a couple pieces of some nice acros to this tank. Is that feasible given that I'm relying on 2 gallon water changes a week to try and keep everything stable? The tank is currently home to a mocha storm, exosphere zoa, acid trip zoas, white zombie zoas and a bezerker shroom. Tank has been holding steady at 78°F since startup with about a 1 degree dip in temp at night. Also, how much can I push that Nero 3 given such a small volume? It's currently set at 2% on pulse mode 500ms on and 250ms off. Thank you.

Welcome and thanks for joining - there is a lot you can do with a tank this size... but I would wait a while before you go after acros... just my opinion formed with personal experience

Best of luck and settle in....
