Curtis' Reef

Hello, so I'm new here on this forum but I've been a long time member over on reef central but their nano section has been dieing out recently.

So onto my reefing story I started about 4-5 year ago and I had a 28 gallon cube with a 20L sump during that time. The tank looked awesome the first few years but at the end I kinda fell out of love with it. So I decided recently to look for a new tank, I really wanted an Aio since the tank is in my room. I found a really good reviewed guy on eBay that makes made to order acrylic AIO.

I received the tank about 4-5 days ago now, it's a 20x20x8 1/2" acrylic tank. The build quality is awesome, I've always wanted a shallow tank, I love looking down on them from above. So I used my old life rock and I washed all my old sand out in the old saltwater as well. So far so good.

 

Equipment:

Light: 12 3w cree led Diy.(just ordered a nano Box duo though!)

Pump:MJ 1200(w/ ballvalve)

Powerhead: MP10

Heater: 50w

Next item on my list is an ATO

Filtration:

Carbon

Purigen

Filter floss

Might add chaeto later but I have a light bio load anyways.

 

Fish:

Clownfish that's 6-7 years Old. Her partner sadly committed suicide about 2 years ago, which was the older one she would've been 8.

 

Coral:

Toadstool

Branching frogspawn

GSP

I want to fill the rest of the space with pure zoas and maybe an sps Coral but I'm going to wait for my new light.

 

 

Thats about it for now, just wanted to start the thread. Maybe some pictures tomorrow.

So follow along with me on this journey where you will see an old tank transformed into a new tank and see me fall in love with reefing again.
