I'm no help, i used to know, but since forgot...

 

Here are some pics from my first tank, i had when i was 10, i took care of it myself

It is a used 58g glass tank with crappy power compacts 1 SPS Green Slimer and like 8-10 pieces of LPS

Remora hang on skimmer plus water changes every 2-3 weeks

 

It was a passive tank with two seahorses, pipefish, goby shrimp pair, mandarin, horseshoe and decorator crab... Eventually I added a Pakastani Butterfly and Pygmy Angel who thrived

The seahorses died after about 18 months as I was a stupid boy who eventually got lazy feeding them twice a day and was overwhelmed by middle school/teenagership

 

After that I was sad and decided to take down the tank, I saved up for a year and did research only to come back with the fantastic aquarium i have now! I decided to switch from very hard fish and super easy LPS to easy fish and hard SPS. I also almost did a Octopus tank :D

 

Now i have 5 years of experience at the tender age of 15 with a kick ass dream job in a world renowned fish store! What a journey it has been :rolleyes:

For the first time, i have phosphates, which brings me to my bad news. Only 7 Chromis are left, they keep killing eachother, one is always bullied into a corner (runt) until it dies of stress and then the group replaces it with a new runt who eventually dies, it's a cycle, any help?

 

Today i got some reef pods for my mandarin, a 3rd feather duster, monti cap, and a acan

It seems slowly but surely i will replacing/relocating my LPS and stonies, my lights are too powerful, expect some more Acro and Montis for sure, wouldn't be surprised if i had only SPS in a year...
