I have a Meluranus and a sixline. if your looking at the fish in the upper part it's one of two zebra stripped darts.
 
I have severe back problems so a sump is out. I run a Reef Octopus BH-2000 hob skimmer. two Jeboa powerheads, and a cheap canister for carbon and gfo. two Chinese 120w dimmable led's hung 10" above the tank. mostly softies and a few lps. so far dosing is not needed. 13 peaceful fish. one spot foxface is the biggest for now but I have a Lamark angel that is only about 2". I'm retired and needed to keep expenses down. this was a wild discus tank I ran for 4 years. I think it proves that you don't have to spend a fortune to have a reef.
