Hi Ravi, I was thinking about your crazy build thread and figured I’d check in to see how your tank is doing.

My tank took 4 years to become stable and I always thought larger water volume would make nutrients easier to control. Turns out, it’s been the exact opposite! After losing coral after coral, I finally said, the hell with it. I’ve spent enough hard-earned money on this hobby and seeing so many expensive frags die i am done BTW, those Periha pond pumps are one of the reefing hobby’s best-kept secrets. Quiet, reliable, and incredibly energy-efficient for the amount of water they move.

Post an update! Nobody cares if your tank looks perfect. I think mine looks ugly half the time, but as long as it’s alive and kicking, it’s a beautiful reef!
