Hello everyone! My nano reef has been running for about a year, and I am going to start my tank build thread (better late than never). I’ll start with some photos, then get an equipment list out. From there we will see where it goes!
 
I have a 25 gallon Waterbox aio peninsula tank. One photo of each side.

Nice collection of corals, tastefully arranged. :)
 
Great looking tank, I love the aquascape. I'm thinking of purchasing the same tank, what are your stocking plans for it?

I've been wanting to start a Waterbox 25. What simple upgrades would you recommend for a somewhat beginner? I've one been in the hobby for 2 years. I have a 13.5 floral, and looking at a 32.5 Fluval and a Waterbox 25 as my next two tanks.
