Hello all, this is my first post here so I should start by saying I am still really new to saltwater tanks. I started a 24 gallon nano cube that finished cycling and then I added 2 clowns and a couple easy corals to start with on October 8th and a cleanup crew. I have since added a cleaner shrimp and several more corals to include LPS, leathers mushrooms and zoas.

This past week I picked up another setup which is a 30 gallon half cylinder that is 27x27x13 deep with a 10 gallon sump. The tank cane with livestock and all equipment. The tank does have a decent amount of GHA that I am going to start working on. I have reduced feeding from every day to every other day and switched out a current USA orbit light for a hydra 26. I have also been testing so I can figure out the amount of dosing I need.

Hi Welcome, Looks really nice. I can't wait to see ours this way, we just started in April so we have a ways to go.

Thanks everyone. I have been a member at nano-reefs for a while but tomorrow I am picking up a 120 and will need some recommendations on equipment.
