I thought after a year of being on this forum that I would document my run at a small reef tank.

Tank has been set up since March 2016 (FOWLR). This is round 2 (Reef), I lost everything in December to a bad case of Ich and Brook.

Equipment list
Hydor 1150 powerhead - 2
Fluval 306 canister filter (run floss, chemipure blue, carbon, purigen)
13W UV Sterilizer - 2
Current USA Orbit Marine LED
Aqueon Pro 250W Heater

Stock (as of now, fish to be added in May)
- Ignore the tang and clown in the picture, lost them due to Ich.
Banded coral shrimp
Dwarf Zebra Hermits
Blue Hermits
Nerite Snails
Pincushion Urchin
Green BTA
Acan

If anyone could tell me the name of this Acan I would appreciate it.
 
Love your scape. Keep posting pics of your progress. Good start
 
Currently battling a small case of cyano. I decided to try the product Vibrant. Seems to be doing the job.
