IM Nuvo 25 aquaforest

[jtietz]

Starting a new ulns system and would like to start a conversation about the setup and progression if it. I am not new to reefing. Ive been the hobby for 10ish yrs. I sold my 210 mixed reef which most would consider a dream tank and went nano. The new aquarium is 25 gallons and will be a ulns system using all aqua forest products. Live stock will be all sps, a pair of clowns, and a clam.
Components list...
- 25 gallon IM nuvo lagoon all in one
- A350w kessil led tuna blue wide
- smart ato
- Aquatop reactor mr-20
- Pls50 CAD lights skimmer
- marine pure balls
- 18lbs of tonga granch rock
- DA reefkeeper rkl
- DA reefkeeper sl2 v2
- jebao dp2 dosing pump
- jebao dp4s slave dosing pump
- jebao wave maker
- 2x IM 360 spin

Attached are pics of new aquarium and 1 nostalgic pic of my old reef

I dosed bio s and ran phosphate minus and carbon along with probiotic salt for 14 days. My tank turned pure white from a massive bacteria bloom. But i continued with the dosing and it cleared up.

Ammonia a little high. But nitrate and nitrite are steady 0. May be a false reading. Any way i added zeo mix to the reactor.
