1st time making my own thread, but I have stalked a lot of
them. I love seeing other ppls threads and how their builds can help
others make decisions on how they want to setup their 1st tank or
their 10th. My tank has been up and running since 1/1/17 and that is
also how long I have been in the hobby. I got into this hobby, due to
my many of hours watching YouTube which is where I stumbled upon BRS
YouTube channel and from then on I was hooked. (no pun intended)

Yeah zoa's are probably one of my favorite Coral. I tell myself every time I go to the LFS not to buy any more until I get a bigger tank. I definitely want to be zoa hoarder lol

This week I had my Sherman Rose bubble tip anemone move to the back of the tank. Then a few days later he split.

Here's where he was

About time for a update, I got rid of the skimmer and decided just to do a refugium in the bottom. Also here are some progression pics.

Beautiful new tank.

Here are some images of mine.

I do not have any corals right now as I am fighting a battle with a White Slime Cyno. The good news is that I am winning, though slowly.

I like your Aquascape. I didn't know what to do with mine so I just put two big rocks in my nano.

Nice corals. When u took out the skimmer and added a refugium, how did that go?

Love your bigger tank. I just started a redsea 170.

How do you like your sicce 2.0 pump? I’m looking for something very quiet.

It all went good taking out the skimmer. I did notice an explosion of pods and snails in the tank afterwards but could also be because I took out my filter sock as well. I like the pump I've had it since day one it's been good to me and is silent
