Well, the box shape of the E170 was driving me crazy and I had a spouse approved opportunity to upgrade my office reef, so I jumped at it. Got everything moved over and we are starting over so here we go.

Tank: Innovative Marine SR 2 Pro 80 Gallon AIO
Lighting: 2x AI Blade, 48 inch
Return Pumps: 2xMightyJet 22W/24V 538 GPH DC Return Pump w/ Controller
Wavemaker: Nero 7
Hydros Launch
Hydros XP8


I plan to add a Tunze AIO Skimmer in the near future, but I found my e170 I ended up only running a skimmer part time as it brought nutrients super low.

I cycled the new rock for about a month in a bin to help bacteria colonize it. My plan was 2 months but IM shipped me the tank early and....look I wasn't gonna just let it sit in the crate.

Managed to capture the mantis shrimp in the move as well.


Current stock:

1xPeppermint Shrimp
1xPistol Shrimp (Incident with a dottyback and it's paired goby in original tank)
Various Hermits and Snails
1xEmerald Crab
1x Rock Flower Anemone

2xMocha Storm Clownfish
Purple Firefish
2xPajama Cardinals
Baby Biota Yellow Tang (incoming tang police wee woo wee woo)


Caribbean Rose Coral
Caribbean tube coral
6x Hammers
1x Torch
2x Birdsnest Coral (bird of paradise and bright green)
2x Duncans (Standard and TSA Slam Duncan)
Blueberry Stylophora
Neon Green Candy Cane
Mini Scoly
Forest Fire Digitata
2xFavia
Montipora (Sunset and Cap)
Numerous Zoas

Minor scape change after several hammers decided the new tank wasn’t for them. Currently constantly fighting a low level Dino outbreak but it’s trending in the right direction. Sps are starting to all grow more than they ever did in the e170 tho so I am not too stressed.

Apparently as the Dinos are starting to fade away they have revealed this monster tunicate that decided the latch on to the top of my aquascape. (And the dang bubble algae) (fitting for spooky season tho)
