The build starts! Red sea reefer nano. The goal is assorted sps and a few acans + zoas. This time around I'm trying to leave room to grow.... instead of a rock wall to the ceiling.
I'm probably going to stock with a royal grama or a 6 line wrasse/pink line wrasse.
I tried to make sure flow could get through and under the rock work, made lots of caves and tunnels, and hope more tunnels form as acro colonies grow.
I have an old mp10, but I think I'm going to get 2 Nero 3's when they become available.
Still undecided if I want to go with a large refugium to grow pods/macro algae or use my old reef octopus and just have some rubble in the 1st chamber.
Lighting is a ai prime hd16, pretty happy with this light.
Overall pretty happy with red sea reefer, looks very clean and seems quite big for a 20g
So excited to get water in it!
Cycling plan is a hybrid of dr. Tims and turbo start, I was planning to just keep dosing ammonia until things looked stable enough to add a few hermits and feed them. Where I'm located the fish I want might be hard to find so I might be fishless for a while.
