Very nice tank! What are those tiles on the bottom of your tank that corals are growing on? Might want to do something like that for my bare bottom tank. Thanks

A lot of people use travertine tiles from Home Depot and the like, which I do too. Not sure what Shaun uses, but probably very similar

Oh wow ,,, very nice ,, tagging along ,, you need to post more :)
You ask and you shall receive lol. I have not been posting much here due to lack of people seeing my thread/commenting or liking so it felt like a waste of time. I am much more active on facebook sites and instagram @Ohiostreetz.

But here is a FTS and a few close up of the tank

Amazing coloration. Got a list of the corals?
What LEDs are you using besides your T5?
I noticed in addition to your CaRx you're dosing some things?

How long have you been dosing the red sea? Looks like you have it automated?

Just found the thread and you have an amazing tank. I love the chalices on the bottom, makes me want to remove my sand and start something along those lines

I was thinking the same thing. Tough to give up a sand bottom, much less rip it out and the problem with chalices on the bottom with sand is they get covered. It's a great idea, especially as they grow out and blend into each other.

Yeah, I am thinking maybe some zoas in between, and maybe a hammer or two as well. I may have to give it a try.
