Hey yall!
Starting my first ever reef tank/saltwater tank! I started with a 5 gallon betta tank which has educated me quite a bit on tank management in general. I have also done a lot of research on creating a reef tank, and humble enough to know I still don't know nearly enough about keeping a reef =) but saltwater is where my heart lays, so I am diving in!
I have a 40G Breeder with coarse sand and dry Rock that I drilled myself and added a herbie overflow, plumbed to a 20 long, 3 chamber sump that I made myself. (Filter socks/Skimmer, refugium, return). The dry rock, accidently, resembled a dragon when I was finished and so I have dubbed my DT "The Reef Dragon"
I am running reef crystals at 1.025 SG with RO/DI, and ATO. I really like euphillia and some leathers/mushrooms. Plan to have 5 or 6 smaller fish. I also added an Alexa enabled powerstrip for some automation and routines.
I have an Occ. Clownfish currently in a cycled QT for over 1 week now. My plan is one fish and coral at a time. I'm ready to get reefing!
