I still plan go getting the 24"er for my 2OL at some point.. Yeah man the scape is pretty sweet. I just wanna build it up a little higher too! Gorgs are nice dude, gonna get into those soon. The issue with the light still exists, but I've broken down and purchased an AI Prime anyways haha If you want, I can sell you my nemolight for $150. Pretty sweet discount and I've only been using it for 3 weeks. Finally settled these into a nice spot! Got a new update coming after this one too! Some new blue ricords as well as new zoas and frogspawn (pics coming soon once they open up and acclimate). Stay tuned for more! Link to comment
thomas8man Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 looks great slowly building up my zoa garden after a zoa pox cleaned half of the zoas. I always look at my zoas at my store and when i put them in my tank for any white dots. Link to comment
Laybackk Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 Any updates? Here's an update: Overall view with new AI Prime light Full tank view Close up, Purple Favia (New) Close up, Unknown Zoas? (New) Close up, Red Rovers (New) Close up, Green Trumpets (New) Close up, Frogspawn (New) Close up, Blue-green Favia? (New) Close up, Orange Bam Bams (Sent from Holy Carp) Close up, Blue Ricordea (6 Mouths) Everything has pretty much exploded since getting the AI Prime. All the zoas are brighter and more colorful and the favias and trumpets just pop. I've seen pretty good growth from all the corals and I'm looking to add my first couple of fish soon! Livestock thus far: * 5x Zoa colonies * 2x Favia colonies * 1x Trumpet colony * 1x Frogspawn head * 6x Blue ricordea mushrooms Future livestock plan: * Maroon clown with anemone (or maroon clown pair) * 6-line Wrasse * Royal Gramma * Red Firefish * And maybe a goby of some sort Lemme know what you guys think!

Beautiful tank! I was thinking about getting a pair of gold nugget maroon clowns for my tank. Are you getting any designers? Link to comment
Laybackk Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 Not sure about designers, but a gold maroon pair is most likely my next choice. Beautiful tank! I was thinking about getting a pair of gold nugget maroon clowns for my tank. Are you getting any designers? Link to comment
thomas8man Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 you should get the spin stream for the nuvo makes for more variable flow. Also could do a pygmy fish like churb angels( haven't had them eat corals at all before and have had plenty before.) Link to comment
SteadyAim. Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Awesome progress! Love the frogspawn Link to comment
Laybackk Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Thanks guys! you should get the spin stream for the nuvo makes for more variable flow. Also could do a pygmy fish like churb angels( haven't had them eat corals at all before and have had plenty before.) The MP10 on lagoon mode gives me plenty of flow. The spinstreams are ok, but not needed here lol Link to comment
Clown79 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Looks really good. How is the light? Link to comment
Laybackk Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 Actually upgraded the light to an AI Prime. Absolutely love it. The connectivity via iPhone is perfect and the scheduling works great! Link to comment
Laybackk Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Yeah, that Aquamaxx just wasn't what I wanted and not what I thought it was. The AI makes everything so easy, and the shimmer is amazing! You upgraded already! Wow. Link to comment
Laybackk Posted June 25, 2016 Author Share Posted June 25, 2016 Coming along great! I'll post some pics tomorrow and show it off lol How's the tank doing? Link to comment
reefproject Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 tank looks great! love all the pictures... hope to see more as the tank progresses Link to comment
Steam1n_Seam3n Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Tanks looking good! Are you by chance using spin streams? Was thinking about upgrading to those for my 20, but I have heard mixed reviews. Link to comment
Laybackk Posted November 3, 2016 Author Share Posted November 3, 2016 Tanks looking good! Are you by chance using spin streams? Was thinking about upgrading to those for my 20, but I have heard mixed reviews. Actually I don't use them. The flow from the stock nozzles work just fine, mixed with my ecotech. Link to comment
holy carp Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Laybackk's back. Let's see an updated FTS! Link to comment
