Awesome-looking tank! Are you able to provide more detail about it?
Year it started those sort of things!

It started a little over 3 years ago, with a different focus, but little by little I fell in love with Acropora corals, so I focus on them, especially high-end Acropora. It has a high flow rate, PAR between 800-300, nitrates 6, phosphates 0.05, KH 8.5, calcium 447 and magnesium 1400. It runs with a Georeef Silent CR818 calcium reactor. I maintain the pH between 7.95 and 8.30, raising it with sodium hydroxide and adding calcium chloride equivalent to AK sodium hydroxide. I don't do water changes; I keep everything according to the ICP. The lights are Orphek Atlantic Icon, and the aquarium dimensions are 60x22x27 inches. Adding the sump makes around 210 gallons.
 
Very nice looking tank!!

Impressive for only having it for three years! Thanks for sharing the details!

Although most Acropora specimens, including colonies, were a year or a year and a half old, some were only a few months old. 95% were just small fragments.
