Few updates on the tank now that all the frag racks are out. Corals arent in the best shape since i neglected for a few months then my apex died and the tank doesnt have skimmer and lighting for about a months. Lost a few colony but that reef.

Looking good from where I'm sitting!

Thanks, they are not happy like they used to but hopefully they will bounce back.

the 4 years life span of the tank. Initially around June 2018 till current. Each pix taken each year apart, more or less.

Just an amazing reef. Excellent result.....how did you manage to achieve stability without having live stones?At the same time, the display is very clean, no fouling is visible and there is no cyano...Maybe special bacteria, ...what?

 

[takayan]

what kind of coral is this purple poly coral? They are everywhere in your tank. Is it Goni?

What do you mean live stones? The system is mature enough to stabilized on its own. I introduced a lot of bacteria at the early stage of the tank and i believed i have a good amount of diversity in the tank now. I run an oversize skimmer so it help with the export

Those are blue clove softy. I grow them as an algae deterrent. Very invasive but not aggressive.

Sad day, one of my favorite led strip fell in the tank. My reef brite lumi lite that i have for almost 6 years. Lots lf nasty burned water came out but luckily all inhabitants are fine

An update on 4 months growth from april-august this year. Went through a mini crashed with about 25% casualties but bouncing back.
