AIO Landen 26g 60p reef tank. 18mo into the hobby.

Tank Setup:

• Chamber Layout (Left to Right):
  • Chamber 1 (Intake):
    • Egg crate media basket with three levels:
      1. Filter Floss
      2. Chemipure Elite
      3. Bio Media Balls
    • Houses the heater set at 78°F.
  • Chamber 2 (Refugium):
    • Innovative Marine with copepods motel on the bottom and Chaeto above.
    • JBJ refugium light glowing through tinted glass.
  • Chamber 3 (Return):
    • ATO connected to a 5-gallon container mixed with kalkwasser.

Lighting & Flow:

• Nicrew 100W light set 9" above the water, on a 12-hour schedule.
• Two Jebao wave makers (SLW-10 & SOW-4) for optimal flow (still experimenting with placement).
• Upgraded to a 265 g/h return pump for better circulation.

Feeding Routine:

• Feed Rod's frozen mix every other day, dry mysis shrimp every three days, and live brine shrimp every other day.

Fish & Cleanup Crew:

• Mocha Clown, Cardinal, Cowfish, Yellow Watchman Goby, and a Cleaner Shrimp.
• CUC includes 10 Nasarius snails and 5 Trochus snails.

Coral Situation:

• I currently have 26 corals, but I’ve had a rough history with coral growth and losses. The tank has even been dubbed "Death Row" due to previous losses! LOL
