So I went ahead and grabbed a few more coral this past week!
I got me some Rastas, Red Hornets, Pink lemonade acro, green monti and rainbow birdsnest!

I have been struggling a bit with some algae but I noticed last night that it is starting to lose its color and it's washing away. I want to say that my recent water changes have been helping with this since I have been doing a 5 gallon water change every other day for about a week now! Another WC is due tomorrow so I'll keep up with this for about 2 more weeks to see if anything good comes out of this.

Beautiful tank and set up you have there! I have the same exact tank... I'm kinda a fan of it, but at the same time I'm not. I love the length and width but wish the height was around 16-18 inches instead of 24. I'll see if I can add some pictures here in a little bit :) the tanks not looking the best because I'm in the transition of switching over all my equipment so I can get a sump and building a new stand... so ignore how dirty it is + I gotta fix the right side of the scape ;)

Wow your tank looks great. Love the minimalist scape, I always go for that look but end up with 50lbs of live rock lol. Get that bad boy drilled and add that sump! You will thank yourself in the long run.

Here are some crumby pics of some coral from my tank.

Same too you love your tank!
I tried to go as minimalistic as possible so my SPS has room to grow... still haven't added a ton of sticks just because I'd feel better about once I get a sump. LOL.


Also quick question for you... this tank is NOT tempered glass correct? I couldn't gin anything about the glass used on it... just wanted to make sure before I ended up with a bunch of glass all over :p

My tank was not tempered but I would check with the manufacturer before drilling.

This tank has been decommissioned. Broke it down and transferred all inhabitants to a new 40g IM about 3 weeks ago. New thread coming soon.
