My aquarium is an AIO 50-55G acrylic I had picked up from a Saltwater store near me. The aquarium used to hold Mantis shrimp until I acquired it. This is my setup so far. Looking at getting frag tanks and such in the future and maybe a bigger home to have more aquarium space!

I like your rockscape. What are you planning to stock?
I am planning on making it mainly a Zoa garden with some fishes. Possibly a couple of Ocellaris and Clarkii's. Honestly, I am going to Preuss Pets (Lansing, MI) this weekend and that'll answer this question when I get back lol.

Looks like you’re off to a great start, following.
Thank you! Definitely been a bish the past week trying to get everything situated and getting all the gear I need set up. Looking at in the next week or so having a Phyto/copepod and Mysis farm going also.

I worked at Preuss’s for years when I was at MSU. Great place.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
