Hi everyone.

My edge aquarium has been running for just over a year now, its the 46l version and I have recently added a sump to it which has made it look so much smarter and easier to maintain.

Equipemt as follows¬

Fluval edge 46l
Ai prime HD light
2x Tunze 6020 wave makers
Fluval edge overflow box
Bubble magus qq1 skimmer
Tmc reef pump 1000 return pump
Jecod dosing pump
Reefloat auto top up

I somehow managed to cram everything into this tiny cabinet and sump. I sacrificed the back half of the sump to keep my dosing Containers and also my ro reservoir.

Had quite a lot of errors and battles with this tank (as everyone does) but things are starting to come together nicely now.

Stocking :

Pair common clowns 1x Black 1x orange
2x lemon damsels
1x ghost cardinal
1x banghai cardinal
Yellow dwarf angelfish
6x bumble bea snails
2x turbos snails
Conch snail
1x hermit

Corals:

Golden torch
Purple tipped green torch
Yellow hammer coral
Elegance
Red mushroom
Pink and green goniopora
Birds nest
Lemon drizzle acropora
Gold rush acropora
Some others I have no idea what they are called!

I run my levels at:

Kh 11.2
Calcium 440
Magnesium 1350
Po4 0.08
No3 2

I vodka dose and also add a few drops of flourish each day to keep Po4 above 0.

Hope that's of interest to some people il post some pics!

Think that's all I have for now. Currently thinking of changing my light to a xr15 as I don't think a single prime is enough for my sps frags
