MadReefPat's CAD Lights 8 gallon Nano Reef

Hey, just made the transition into salt water after a few years with freshwater planted tanks. I was putting off taking the plunge into salt until I graduated and had a steady stream of income but needless to say the fish keeping hobby got the best of me. A friend of mine gave me a good deal on a CAD Lights 8 gallon mini series tank and I decided it was a good opportunity to get my feet wet in the saltier side of the hobby.

 

As of right now I am running the standard tank with a hydor koralia 240 and a cobalt neotherm as a heater. Really tempted to switch up the lighting from the stock LED to a kessil 150 since I'm running two amazon suns on my planted 40 breeder and am impressed with the company thus far.

 

The iPhone can't really capture any photos without blowing out the white balance and coming out severely blue so I will see what I can do about getting my t3i set up for some photos. As of right now I have got the tank fully cycled and have begun adding some easy corals. I plan on sticking with softies and I really love LPS. Maybe with a light upgrade I will try some easy SPS when the time comes.

 

Really looking forward to seeing how I do with salt since I enjoyed planted tanks a lot. Just wanted to introduce myself and start what I hope will be a well documented journal for this tank.
