Hello from Serbia :)

Hello everyone :)
Glad to meet ya'll and exchange experiences.
I come from Serbia, and here is my little 32 litre tank. Open to any suggestions and ideas.
I am just a saltwater scrub, in the hobby for a year.
The tank is all in 1, Ocean free 3 with a bad factory light and added a Chihiros led where i only use blues, purple green and red. Recently removed the skimmer cause it did not pull anything and added a small HOB with carbon and some floss i change every few days.
My new light is actually on its way, i also wanted to ask if anyone is using the same one or has any feedback, it is Lumini Pixie 150. Also any advice on the lighting colour settings and channel tinkering, light cycle in general is most welcome:) I wil also include a few photos of the start.

Thank you :) It is an amazing hobby indeed. Serbia is a landlocked country and it is illegal to import corals so everything coral-trade wise comes from hobbyists themselves. Where there is a will, there is a way :)
 
Tanks looks good with the light
Thank you very much, i love the look of it so far. Have to be really carefull with acclimation, its a total overkill for the current tank. Just for a reference, here is a thick styrofoam over the tank and light is 100 percent intensity

Just a small update on the tank and lights. I am far from competent to discuss this, but just from my impression on how the corals look it seems to be really great.
I had an issue with the alkalinity, my test showed 14 so i freaked out and did a 20% water change. It seems to have been a gradual increase, since none of the corals show any signs of stress. Im starting to doubt my test (Salifert).
 
Long overdue update :)
I upgraded to an allin1 25 gallon tank, added more sand and more dry rock. Timeline photos from July 20th 2020 until now:
