wyattroa Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Well, this is my second attempt at my tank. More research and experience this time around and more thought put into it. Still could have put more thought into it and and change things around. Tank has been up and running for close to 2 years I would say. I started out with 20lbs of dry rock and around 8lbs of live rock and live sand. What it looked like at the start with dry rock and the piece of live rock. The progression.. 2-29-2012 3-8-2012 Current Equipment 24 gallon nano cube Aqua Illuminations Sol blue LED with Controller Apex Controller with Temp Gauge and Ph Gauge..Email notification Bubble-Magus 3 Pump Doser Nextreef MR1 reactor with ROWAphos Vortech MP10esW Aquamaxx HOB-1 Vortech Battery Backup Maxi-jet 1100 JBJ ATO Eheim Jager TruTemp 150 Watt Linelock with Y split inTank Media Basket Chemi-pure elite Purigen Seagel Poly Filter Floss 20lbs dry rock 8lbs live rock Live sand Fish Clown Black Axil Chromis Pajama Cardinal Inverts Coral Banded Shrimp Fuzzy Chiton Orange Sea Starfish CUC from ReefCleaners.org Coral SPS Brett's Purple Rim Capricornis Birdsnest Coral Bali Staghorn Acropora Coral Bali Bushy Acropora Coral Fiji Green Birds Nest Rainbow Montipora Grape Limeade ORA Red Plante ORA Borealis Acropora Hybred Pearlberry Rainbow Acropora Jason Fox RedHot Setosa LPS Arcan Closed Coral Brain Short Tentacle Plate Coral Mummy Eye Chalice Kryptonite Candy Cane Green Tip Torch Coral Blastos Australian Scoly SOFT 3 different types of zoa..don't know specific names..Should find out though.

I dunno what they are Yeah, I picked them up since they looked nice. The green ones were nice and small when I got them, but have since exploded. Nice tank ya have there. Thank you..I just wish I would have busted up the dry rock the first time through. Live and learn I guess..I was not really thinking about having to place corals at that time..
