[nanoocean]

Hello everyone, I started this tank 3 months ago with dry rock and live sand. Curently have two clowns, one royale grandma, two chromises, red fire shrims, few crabs, two nassariana and one teochus snails. I also aded few frags and so far so good. I am cutentlybduing 20 perecent water changes weekly with tropic marin pro reef salt. I only check salinity 1.025, alkalinity 8.5 and phosphates 0.11. I feel like I finallybgot everything stabalized but Ibdo need better light and planning to get radian xr15 blue.

There you go!

Tell us more… what are you doing for flow? In a new tank like this I would also monitor nitrate; it can bottom out and hurt your coral.

Thank you will check nitrates this week. For the flow I have those three cirlulation pumps withe midlle 400 gph and side once 240 gph which is just enough without blowimg sand. Will upgrade to gyre wave maker eventually.

Looks good! Is that a blastos I see in the middle of the frag rack? If it is, I would place him away from flow at the bottom of the tank. They tend to do well in low flow/low light.

I got this one as a pack so not even sure, but it does like pinco de gallo favia? Raptor favia? I was organazing everything today and placed the frag rack high for acros so will have to relocate this guy.

Yes, definitely a lower light coral. He’ll fluff up when you get him on the sand bed. Right now very contracted.
