I just started a new mix reef
A custom acrylic tank 48x18x34 (WxHxD).
I built the stand using 2"x 4" pressure treated lumber
All of the rocks used were in my other tanks sump for 6 months before starting this tank.
After the tank was up and running for a month, I added some frags from my other tanks.

1 Year update:
I've notice a big growth spurt after the 8th month, I guess it's a sign of tank maturity.
I've also started to dose the DIY All-for-reef, Amino (1/4 recommended amount twice a week), and reefroid (1/4 recommended amount twice a week)
