Hello all,
I have been here a few months and wanted to show off my tank. It is a 58 gallon with a twenty gallon sump, and led lights. It has been up and running about six months. I do a five percent water change once a week
I have gotten a lot of great information from this forum and just wanted to share my progress, of course I am still learning and have long way to go, but man is it fun. I am experimening with light and flow, and different sump ideas.
I have several corals which are growing and doing well, but I have one that is not doing so good(torch coral). A learning experience for sure.
My other corals include long polyp toadstool, yellow Fiji leather, favia, montipora, pocilapora, pipe organ, zoa, green star polyps, and a few more. Can't wait to add more, there is a Coral show coming up in March and I'm thinking about getting an Acan, another monti and an Acropora, I know they can be a little more demanding.
I would love to hear some thoughts about anything I can improve, thoughts on the tank itself, or adding those particular corals.

Beautiful tank. Love the aquascape. Only suggestion, the yellow tang will soon become to large for that tank. My rule of thumb for tangs, they should have at least 5 feet of swimming space preferably 6 feet +. If it's only temporary and you have or can find a bigger home for it your good!
