Hi all. I started this tank back in December knowing literally nothing about reefing. I read and researched all I could on R2R and wanted to share what I have.

Please share your opinions and any suggestions on what to change. I wanted this tank to look stuffed with Corals, but I am still learning what can go where so it's a struggle.

Looks great so far. My only concern would be those anemone's.

You said it's a 5g and you have what looks to be 2 long tenticle anemone's which 1 of those gets bigger than your entire tank! ;p

Good luck though, looking good so far
 
Thanks! Yes, I know. It has grown about 10% in the past 2-3 months. I have another tank at home that will house the corals that outgrow this tank. This is at work. I still have to organize it, but my params are good and the fish and corals are all happy except for one.
 
Welcome, I am new to saltwater as well, started in June. You have a Really nice tank, I started out with an 8 gallon tank and now have a 30 gal. Rl, and I am already thinking of the next size.:D Everything I've learned about reef tanks is from R2R and you tube videos. Looking forward to seeing more of your tank. :)
 
Thanks Chris! Just need to do some organization and figure out how to remove all the bubble algae.
