Two oversized skimmers, refugium, no chaeto, 30 Pacific oysters, DIY D.E.filtration, starting some ozone, heavy feeding, NPS corals.
Forgot, no water changes.

Awesome! I have a Pico NPS hospital tank. I usually get the NPS from LFSs when no one else will buy them. I have an oversized HOB, in which are two sponges, two nitrate filter pads and a nano Chemipure bag as needed. Water change of 20-40% every 3-4 days. Do you have a thread somewhere. Would love to connect.

Look at my profile, it shows my threads. One new thread is setting up D.E. filtration for NPS corals.
Thanks for interest in NPS, comrade
