Hello everyone! I’m a high school freshman currently running a 60-gallon reef tank (main display is about 50 gallons) in South Korea. I’d love to share my setup and my journey with you all.
System Specifications:
I keep a mixed reef including SPS (Wild Millepora, Cultured Tenuis, Wild Montipora, etc.), various frags (Millepora, Pocillopora), Brain coral, Leathers, Xenia, Star Polyps, Green Digitata, Hammers, and Torches.
Fish Livestock:
I am planning to add a 12cm Regal Angelfish, a 6cm Flame Angelfish, and a .
I know some might be concerned about nutrient levels with this stocking density, but I am currently maintaining an oligotrophic state with Nitrate at 5 ppm and Phosphate at 0.03 ppm. I have also designed the aquascape with extensive rockwork to provide plenty of hiding spots and territories for the fish.
I’m looking forward to being an active part of this community and sharing my progress! !
