Here’s my first reef tank it’s been going for almost four months now and it seems to be going strong. At first I had a lot of hair algae and I finally got that under control and all of the diatoms cleared up except for a small spot leftover from my second diatom phase, and I just recently got my first fish for the tank, I got two juvenile ocellaris clownfish, my other inhabitants are 1 Rosta zoanthid frag, 1 Pulsing Xenia frag, 1 Orange clove polyp frag, and a big GSP frag, and for LPS I have one Indo green torch and a Splatter hammer coral as-well as a Dreamchaser Duncan coral. This little tank has came a long way since I started and I’m super happy with how it’s been going and I love watching everything grow and coming home everyday after school and sitting for an hour watching everything before the lights ramp down.
