Glad to see the move back went well, everything looks quite happy! The new sump setup is great too, lots of room down there.

 

Can you see light at the end of the tunnel? When do you hope to move back in?

Oh we are back in the house! Just having to stare at the cups and plates until the doors are hung lol!

Bam!  Hawk fish are one of my favs.  Been planning on a long nose for my setup soon!  Enjoy, they add so much character to a reef!  Keep up the great work my friend!

Tank looks so clean!!  generally, I don't like the single-mound look.  But there's something zen-nish about this one. Nice job, man.

Thanks! The idea is that one day you won’t see the mound lol. Let the mound be covered in zoas and incrusting ciral while large leathers grow to fill the vertical space. It’s going to take some to for it to happen but I think it will be worth it.

Nice!! Video is way better than photos haha..Where is the hawkfish??? And not the yellow tang but the other one. What kind is it? Yellow kole eyed?? They add so much movement to the tank I like it!

Current equipment list? (namely lights, skimmer, sump, doser)

 

I anticipate my next SPS tank being something similar to a CAD lights or Waterbox 70g.

Lights: Hamilton 6 bulb T5 fixture 36”. 

Although, I want to switch to two Kessil A360X when they come out later this year 🙂 

 

Skimmer: Tunze 9410

 

Sump: Skimz UP22

 

Doser: None. I was using a Jebao but I don’t need to dose daily, yet. I dose when my test tell me to dose.
