Boo's LPS Lagoon

[ReeferBoo]

Hi! My name's Angelo and I just to want to share my nano reef tank from New Zealand with you guys.
I started the hobby about 7 or so years ago when I lived in the Philippines but I have since moved to New Zealand. And despite the massive price differences of livestock, I just could not stay away from the expensive boxes of saltwater that we are all so crazy about.

Here are some specs of the tank:

System
110L DIY Shallow Cube Display Tank

Filtration
60L Sump with a Fuge filled with Caulerpa macroalgae

Lighting
EcoTech Radion XR30w G3

Flow
1x Jebao RW-4


The tank is an LPS dominated mixed reef, most of the livestock in it have been with me for 2-3 years and have been transferred from my previous 60L tank.

here are a few FTS shots over the last few months

It was really a struggle obtaining quality livestock when I started about 3 years ago. The main problems are the very low population of hobbyists so importers can only bring in a limited number of corals at a time. Also, corals usually come with high price tags due to logistics and very strict QT and importation rules. It has slowly improved over the past few years though as more and more people get into the hobby.

That's a chalice, although I don't know the fancy name for its particular color morph. Thanks!
