(Late Posting) 2nd Build for me and the little one

[Coral Kai]

This actually happened in December. I wanted to just create a thread for it just for me to be able to look back on it. I will be updating it this weekend. The picture attached is when the Innovative Marine 30L was delivered. Prior to that we had a WB PM Mini 15G. It got crowded real quick and decided to still have a nano while being to have room for fish to swim, hence the 3ft wide nano.

Will update shortly!

Return Pump - Mighty Jet (comes with the IM30)
Lights - 2 Gen 3 XR15s (I have a reef link)
Skimmer - Bought some cheapo Aquatic life skimmer from Amazon
UV from Innovative Marine
Nero 3 Wavemaker
Jebao SLW 5

Setting up the stand for it! I went with this color because I thought the fake wood design looks fancy

Water in! Dosed alot of bacteria to speed up the cycle. Used Tims

Transferred all the corals that were on the sand from the WB PM 15 when the cycle finished.

Got a Nero 3 for my Boys Gift Exchange. They know I'm all about corals now

My wife was going through her own new build too. She was setting up a WB 50.3 AIO. She needed inspiration from the best reefer in the household

 

[Coral Kai]

Fast Forward to now, the tank is doing well and getting some help from the future reefer

Cant wait until I can tell him to change water! for now he helps feed and sometimes knocks off SPS branches and pokes the zoas

what’s your weekly maintenance routine on this tank, it looks great for it being up only a couple of years.
