My new SPS Tank

[Roberto Denadai]

Is there anything you do to achieve the nice light colors besides just low nutrients? Also curious as to what you think the most important part of keeping the nano tank was? . Low nutrient issues has scared most people towards high nutrient dark coloration sps tanks.

I think the combo low nutrient, high light and high flow, stable parameters is just everything corals need. Sometimes I add some amino acids but is hard to tell if it´s working or not.

I was running my nano without skimmer but I had a hang on filter with some GFO and I did weekly water changes. I used to dose balling as well. Very simple.

I don´t like dark colors. I think I just try to replicate what we can see in the ocean, very low no3 and po4.

I´m going to do a video in english in my channel for reef2reef soon.

I run GFO on a timer but feed pretty heavily and it seems to be working pretty well. What do you feed and how often?

definitely following along :)

@Roberto Denadai I haven't been in the hobby long enough to have seen your displays (or should I say works of art?) but what I have seen in this thread is incredible.
I am definitely following along.

Thank you for sharing you success with us and being part if this community.

Many will learn a lot from just watching you reef. Much appreciated and beautiful reefs!!

Following as well. How do you mount your corals? Is that two part epoxy?

I’m a hobbyist that is in love with a more sterile-looking tank, and I can’t get enough of SPS corals. This is the best of both worlds, and I can’t wait to see more! Wow.

Tagging along for this ride.

Welcome back Roberto, from Brazil? If so, I have followed your tanks for years :) I may be wrong, but know your name, lol, but more importantly style. Best of luck, cannot wait to see this grow :)
Cheers

Like Perry, I remember you from RC.
Welcome back and looking forward to seeing this tank mature and picking up on your husbandry.

Love it!

You’re going to have to get that nitrate and alk up! Kalk won’t support a sps system. What is calcium and mg?

Why does he need to get that Alk up? Kalk can support an sps system most definitely for awhile until it grows out.
