Installed a Lifegard 55w UV. Running closed loop on the display with a Jebao DCP-8000. Love the extra flow it gives in the display too! Can you tell I plumbed with spare parts…

Those are fun tanks. I couldn't deal with the 30" height (short arms), but it makes an awesome display.

What are your plans for fish?

Luckily I’ve got some long arms!

So far I have a fox face, sailfin tang, baby blue hippo and 2 pj cardinals. I’d like to get a little bit of everything- within reason. Some schooling fish, few more tangs, more utilitarian fish. Slowly adding over time.

Update- this tank has been a dream so far! No algae problems aside from a cyano outbreak that was quickly resolved. All of my coral except for a wall hammer looks very happy and growing well. Alk 8-9, Ca 420, Mg 1350, NO3 15-22, PO4 .05.

I have 3 radion XR30 G5s. I also had 3 Noopsyche K7 pro IIs that I threw on as well… why not?

I’m about where I want to be with fish. I do want a few lyretail anthias some day.

I’m really looking to add some more acros to the top ! I’ve recently had my pH reach new highs maxing out at 8.4 and bottoming as low as 8.1. With that, my Alk consumption has been crazy. No signs of precipitation. Coral and coralline growth taking off.

Tank is looking beautiful! Especially for only being only a couple of months old! I see some coral in there I got my eyes on...Can you post a full coral stocking list??
