I like the simplicity. The only other thing I have right now is an ATO. I have been thinking about getting a skimmer for better nutrient export. (I love my single SPS and am getting more this week don't want them to brown) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For sure lol you can't really work with the 'whole' tank. Are you dosing at all? And what are you using for filtration? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking good. The max spect looks like it has really narrow coverage over the 20. Anyways good luck will be following along. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I really like your stand! I wish I had the time to make one:/ Great build

I did a 25% water change and some testing today. Test Results pH=8.2 Ca=380ppm (A little low?) Mg=1300ppm Alk= 9.8dkh (High?) I also noticed my temp was super low after my waterchange around 73 degrees! So I came to find out that my heater is a little wacky so I'm going to be buying a cobalt neotherm. I thought it was weird for my Jager to act up but whatever I guess. Hopefully nothing terrible happens. I have a crappy replacement heater that I threw in for now and it has been bringing the temp up slowly.

Here are some non blue photos of the coral. Actually kinda look like it lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I ended up getting a few snails and crabs the other day have been busy with school and track so that's why I haven't posted lately. I only got 10 total I believe 8 snails (Nassarius and nerite) and 2 crabs (blue and red leg). I didn't take a photo of them. Today I got a black clown (its name is Otto ) and then my fiance, thinking since my tank was cycled, surprised me with a coral. I am thankful for the coral but am really nervous because she got me an SPS frag and I don't have any SPS experience. So any tips to keep it alive and growing would be much appreciated. Here are a few photos of Otto and the new coral. I don't have an ID on the coral so any input? Also getting some new bigger grained sand from LFS on Thursday. Thank you for looking! Will work on better photos tomorrow. I took these in a hurry

Great build Spectra. I really like your aquascape Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The left side is detached from the back/right to allow me to move it for a quick glass clean. That is the only part that might actually get in the way of cleaning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Today's testing results in a cycled tank! I am going away until Sunday so I may be getting something then. Any first inhabitant ideas besides a CUC?

So today I purchased the Smart Micro ATO, inTank media basket, some cleaning stuff, SeaChem Fusion one and two, and some chemi pure elite. Im excited for the ATO because I will be missing some days at school due to sports and it will help me worry less. Anyways happy reefing!

Does anyone have an extra Cal Alk Mg test kit on hand that I could pick up? If not does anyone know of good reliable brands?

I just saw this tank for the first time and wow this is absolutely amazing! The SPS is indescribable. Great build [emoji122]???? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just saw this reply haha. I'm sorry about your luck with SPS I really wanna try some when I get cycled (how long do you think it takes normally) it is so cool when it grows out. And did you have to 'Dedicate' your tank around the BTA I've heard that's what you have to do but yours looks great Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here are some pics of me setting up the tank last night... Here is the cloudy FTS this morning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was thinking about getting one a while down the road but have heard its awfully hard to keep them in anything under 25 gallons
