LandenB's 30 gallon Reef

Sounds like what mine is doing every minute or so i see a spit of micro bubbles trwon in to the tank. Running a small PH koralia 420gph i have stopped the skimming just the see if it was but still. Bubbly.
 
Took the mount out of the water :/ can't believe it's been corroding in there for a month and nothing's dead. Running carbon and did a water change. Also got a cool blasto frag for a deal since half the heads are receded, hopefully they rebound

Tank looks great its something to strive for; i will be setting up a 30g myself in the next month or two. How does the prime light work for you? i noticed you had one to start do you think that the second one was a necessity or did it really help with growth and such?

The primes are great, getting a lot of growth from my zoas. I could've stuck with one... but once you start buying all this coral and you start running out of room.. and you want it to quickly grow back its investment.. then I guess coverage becomes an issue. Lol

Appreciate it man. Only three months old and still stabilizing everyday, the green anemone couldn't handle two primes and detached from stress I imagine and got shredded by my vortech! Now that **** scared me, but nothing died, well the green bta did!

Let me know how it goes and let me know if you have any other questions ! :) best of luck

Thanks for the reply. I am definitely excited to get going with another tank. Had a 55g a few years ago and didnt want to let it go, but i moved and didnt have the room for it. I still need a stand for the 30 so it will still be a bit, but if i come up with anything ill post in here.
 
Looks great!
 
What is that encrusting coral in that middle pic? The green/purple/pink one next to your cleaner shrimp? That looks beautiful and must be doing well with your setup. Chalice? Monti?
