Hello everyone! Sorry my english is bad.
This post is about my Nano reef tank, without sump and without skimmer. My old 6,6gall nano tank was so densely planted with coral that I decided to move to a larger tank.

The next step was to assemble the cabinet for the aquarium. Cabinet dimensions 60см*30см*96см with adjustable legs.

I glued black background and installed the fixture for the lamps, having previously painted them white. Led light CETUS 2.

The move went without incident.

It would be nice if there was some kind of stone on the right side, a little less than the main one.
I decided to experiment and mold something from a сement mortar of white cement and coral send and to make something like an arch.

Before placing the decoration in the aquarium, I kept it in water for several days.

Over time, the decoration will darken and become covered with zoanthus.
There was one unpleasant incident with a clown fish. During the placement of corals, he was smeared with glue. Luckily everything ended well.

Hi all! Something unexpected happened in my aquarium this summer. My Rock Flower Anemones have started to breeding. I was able to capture some interesting and successful videos on camera.
