I started the tank 18th of June and figured that we we good to go with the first 2 small critters the 8th of August.

I've had 5 small hermits walking around since middle of July, have seen the first diatom breakout - hair algae are still a tad of a chore but finally controllable.

I have seen a big fat slug that must have hitch hiked with some of the LR, but he seem to like being in the dark under a rock.

Tank: reefer 170
Tunze 9004 Skimmer
2x tunze 6020 power heads
Orbit Marine Led light
Aqueon return pump
Auto aqua ATO

A cheap rodi plant, that seem to do the job

My skimmer is in the DT, I'll probably move it down in the sump when I get a good idea where to have it; for the time being and while my bio load is small and things are settling in, I'll keep it up there.
