So I've been browsing but never actually got to post my setup.
I bought a setup from a guy locally, and its been about two months. I've made some changes, added some things, and its been both fun and a learning experience.
First, here is a pic of my tank, right now there is a clown fish, goby, and CUC only. Part of the reason for this is that I got ich in my tank, and am not sure what to do. Do I want to try to "manage" it, or should I QT the clown fish and goby and let my tank go fishless for 3ish months?
The point of this pic is to show the power heads, the tank is a 72 gallon corner bow front. It turns out water movement in this thing is pretty difficult, and I am looking for any adjustments I can make to make it better, or if people think this is okay.
Below is my sump, its in a room behind the tank, it has a large piece of rock I didn't like in my tank, skimmer, algae reactor I built, and an ATO.
This came on one of the rocks that came with the tank. It used to look smooth, and now it is looking spiky (if that makes sense). Look closely at the edges, they look like a picker bush, and used to be smooth. Is this good or bad? Or normal?
My lighting schedule is as follows, it is a 4 bulb running 3x ATI Blue+ and 1 ATI Coral Bulb. Is this too much or too little?
Blue+ / coral on 1.5 hours
3xBlue+/Coral on 8 hours
Blue+ / coral on 1.5 hours
Just a random pic of the anemone and some corals I have.
I am open to criticism and looking to learn, so don't be afraid to tell me what I am doing wrong!
