Finally getting around to making a build thread for my WB Reef 220.6. I purchased the tank several years ago to house some discus, angelfish, geophagus, cories and various tetras. I decided to buy a new system for the discus and moved them over in February 2025. I then proceeded to clean out the reef system and get it up and running to move the inhabitants of my nano tanks into.

My order from Dr. Reef’s arrived today. Unfortunately, the yelllow coris wrasse and one-spot foxface didn’t make it. I notified Dr. Reef’s and they already have my replacement order set up. Top quality customer service. I just hope the next set of fish arrive safe. The naso tang, tomini tang, melanurus wrasse and carpenter wrasses arrived in good health and are getting used to their new home.
