ok so i got this tank about 6 months ago (maybe more) and i had a frag swap to go to the next day so i set it up in a hurry with cured live rock and established everything EXCEPT water so i figured there would be no cycle (boy was i wrong) and i got a clown eventually it died and all the corals i got lived so i waited and redid it and got most everything right so now i have my 250 watt halide(20k) and my single sieo820 for flow and about 40 pounds of live sand (well its live now) about 20 pounds of live rock andno skimmer no sump and no reactor of any kind thats just about it well a 50 watt heater too and a ton of frags a large green bubble tipped anemone and a small one too for fish all i have is 4 green chromis that are pigs! well i think thats it but please feel free to post a question and or a comment
