Hello all! It's been a while since I posted anywhere. Just taking it really slow and enjoying it this time around. Tank's been running for almost 3 years, 2012, but was put on the backburner after my daughter was born:), 2013. Kept the tank running with just fish and live rock. I think I only did 2-3 water changes for more than a year...hehe. All the fishes are still alive:).

Elos 70 (55 gallons)
Maxpect Razor 16k
BM NAC-7
Mp10 and WP40
Dosing 2 part
Tunze Osmo
DA with ph and temp
Chemipure elite

My daughter loves the tank, so my better half enjoys it too. Not much going on at the moment.

Livestock: Blue tang( had him since he was only an inch), flame angel, picasso/onyx clown, algae blenny, cleaner shrimp, sea urchin, turbo snails.
Corals: Goni, GSP and a shroom.

Planning of doing a mixed reef but mostly LPS.

I love this tank. I just moved to NYC and ordered a system 70 (after a system 120xl long ago and leaving an A.G.E. behind in Scottsdale).

If you don't mind me asking - how much sand / live rock did you use (pounds). I have ordered the tank and am trying to plan out the complete build now.

I just recently moved to a new place. The tank moved was a success. Put some new sand, about 40 pounds worth, not sure how much rocks I have though.

Thanks Sahin.

Thanks Sahin. Not really much to show. Most are just frags but I see growth:). I bump up my whites and I think it's helping with the color and growth. I also got more frags today..hehe.

Just sit back and adjust as needed:)
