Welcome. I am in Chapel Hill, NC and my tank is a Florida grass flats tank. Only organisms from Florida and the Caribbean.
I have lots of macro algae, a gorgonian, a Royal Gramma and 3 chalk basslets. and some feather duster worms.
In the 2 years I have had a marine tank I have learned that having a good population of pods - amphipods and copepods - may help avoid the scourge of slime algae. I would suggest making this a priority after cycling the tank.
Thanks for the tip! Took a peek at your profile- your tank(s) look really cool. I'm originally from NC as well (Raleigh), moved to VA a couple years ago for school. Nice to meet ya!

Hi everyone! Excited to be a part of this community. I'm a total newbie to the hobby and am planning to create a reef tank in a 20 gallon long. I'm just about finished with the initial research/budgeting stage and feeling ready to get things moving. Figured I should quit lurking and make an account; I'm sure I'll have lots of questions soon! :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

I just finished my IM Fusion 20 Long build! It's been up and running for 2.5 months now! I'm no expert by any means but let me know if you have any questions! I have done a ton of research for nano tanks like ours.
