- Circulation: 2 vortech Mp40 QD
- Return : VecTra M1
- Skimmer: BubbleKing mini200
- Calcium reactor : Vertex RX-C 6D
- Reeflink
- Pacific Sun sentry ATO
-Temperature Aquamedic, titanium Heater
-Plumbing vertex
And a huge amount of working hours
I started on 6th Jun 2016. Here are some photos of the beginning :
SO, all this was made during one month, and during this time i had all the rock in the main display waiting to be prepared for new life.
After one month the rock had the first algae
After 6 weeks i introduced the first inhabitants:
1 Mespilia gobulus
1 strombus
5 nassarius
18 Trochus
5 Cerithium
1 holoturia
1 archaster
1 salarias ramosus
1 flavescens
1 olivaceus juvenil

No3 10
Ca 420
Kh 6.7

I had my first problem with cyano and dinoflagelados
I think it was because of NOPOX and overdose. The obstructions may be are not the best. So decide to stop it and feed daily with frozen food. I also add bacteria Biodigest, aqua forest and thera P. Just waiting one month they disappeared.
So at the end of september, everything had better aspect. I bought and IP WIFI camera to see everything.
this was the new tank looking
new corals, clown fish and hepatus.
15 october 2016 i add the vortech battery back up.
the tank was looking better and better
So i decide to add new corals
These days in december after long holidays i made the last photos and a video
The tank is now 5 months life
