Greetings! My name is Christian.
I’ve lurked in the forums here for quite a while, and figured it was about time I became an actual member.
The info in these forums has really helped me get my first tank up and running and have been absolutely awesome.
Currently I have a Fluval Flex 32 up and running. I started with a single young snowflake Ocellaris, a week or two later I added a second Ocellaris. (They are still doing their dominate/submissive dances but have become quite inseparable).
From there I added a very small purple firefish, and lastly a single blue/green Chromis over the span of a month or so.
CUC: around 8 various snails
Recently I have added my first coral to the tank. A small green hammer which has been doing well so far with one head splitting currently. (It will be moved lower in the tank after it heals more, was fragged from LFS).
Some various specs:
Two Powerheads on opposing sides (Aqamai/Nero with flow turned down low, aqamai angled at surface of tank for O2)
InTank drop in filters and flow directors
A slightly larger eheim return pump
Started with Caribsea fiji pink and liferock
Added pods from Algae barn just to have some in there to start..
I think that pretty much sums it up so far. Water params have been testing great, staying on top of water changes etc..
Feel free to give me some criticism or feedback on any issues you might see with my setup.. or ideas on where to go next!
Thanks again! Wouldn’t of made it this far without this site!
