Hi Everyone,

I am Henry, a returning reefer - Have kept saltwater on and off for over 15 years now, digressed from reefing to keeping fresh/planted for a while, but have decided to scratch the reef itch again.

This is my new (3rd week) ~100L (91cm x 38cm x 30cm) - DIY Acrylic internal overflow with some bio-media & sponge, Smart ATO, AI Nero 3, basic full spectrum LED on a timer(temporary), NSW 25% weekly changes + Pro-Bio Blast supplement, No skimmer, for now, I have a TUNZE DOC on hand.

The tank will have a strong softie focus + Elegance as it's a favourite of mine.

Livestock:
Red/Orange Morph
Purple Morph
Green & Brown Rhodactis
Fluffy Green Morph
Elegance Coral

Future Stock ideas:
2 x Percula Clown
1 x 6 Line Wrasse
1 x Royal Gamma
1 x Tomini Tang
+ As many different colour Morph and Zoa frags as I can find!

Hi Henry and Welcome! Glad you joined and welcome back to salty side!

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. Like you, I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID). Your above information is enough to get started - just make a new thread in Forum > Member Aquariums with your above info and photos!
