So my build thread is starting about 5 months after it actually started, but here is my 75 gallon newbie reef tank.
Specs:
Marineland 75 Gallon aquarium
2x Kessil A360X which I just added 2 weeks ago
Aquamax HOB 1.5 skimmer
Jebao wavemaker
Marineland powerhead
2 aqueon 150w heaters

ocellaris clowns
yellow watchman goby
copperband butterfly
Yellow tang (I know I know)

A couple hammers, zoas, palys, ricordia, favia, leather, monti, pavona, and very recently RBTA

I'll add pictures of the live stock tomorrow in the daylight as most of the corals are partially closed and the fish are sleeping in their caves.

Pictures of my fish and frags currently. The clowns have started hosting my small hammer coral which is entertaining. Also my Anemone has gone into hiding after being happy for 2 weeks due to I believe; some torture by my emerald crab. In his eviction notice will be issued today.

All of my corals are happy and growing new polyps since I've switched to the Kessils. My hammers are splitting heads like crazy! My BTA however very happy ever since the crab ripped its tentacles off. Hoping it will eventually reinflate but for now, I'm just making sure it's not dead every day. Also seeing my first specs of coraline finally growing on my dry rock.

Got my shipment of corals from WWC today. Some montis, bubblegum digi, Bali slimer, leptastrea, chalice, plate coral, and a blasto. Super excited to be filling out my empty spots in the tank.

Does the Aquamaxx HOB Skimmer fit over the rim of the 75 tank ok? i read it wouldn't fit over it. TIA
