Minimalist Reefer 170

[ARVERLY]

IMO, the hardest part about this build is deciding which SPS to add! I told myself that I'd only add about a dozen acroporas and grow them in colonies.

These guys are definitely going in:
RR Pink Floyd
ASD Rainbow Milli
SC Orange Passion
Garf Purple Bonsai
Tyree Pink Lemonade
ORA Red Planet
ORA Pearlberry
ORA Hawkins Echinata
WWC Little Red Ferrari
Strawberry Shortcake

So I need to figure out two more SPS to add.

What are you favorites?

Palmers Blue Millepora, and any blue Tortuosa.

 

[ARVERLY]

I actually have a palmers blue, ORA Oregon tort, and ORA Cali blue tort, but couldn't decide which one!

 

[JTreef]

Purple monster would be a neat addition

Lucky you!!!!! So many choices, but you obviously have a plan or scheme which takes careful planning.

It's so hard to find a true purple monster in FL. I brought one back from CA when I visited but lost it

 

[JTreef]

I've lost my share as well. When I'm more confident in sps I might try unique corals. They have frags sometimes. Price has gone up though

JKR rainbow Acro.

And since you live close to me, I know top shelf use to sell it.

 

[ARVERLY]

I like to keep things neat and organized!

 

[ARVERLY]

I'm thinking about adding two fans on each side of the Radion.

Are you going to give the AF products another try

 

[ARVERLY]

Are you going to give the AF products another try

No, I'm going back to basics: weekly water change, lots of fish poop, and heavy skimming. I'll be dosing Acropower, however, since I've had success with that in the past.

Bad news: I noticed a small crack on my return plumbing

Replacement part should come in next week.

 

[ARVERLY]

Here's the final aquascape! 40lbs of Tropic Eden Reefflakes have been added.

 

[bubbaque]

Woo, looks like the one I picked! Lol

Lol, I actually liked the one with the island but wife vetoed that haha

 

[ARVERLY]

Got a 7-stage RODI system for a sweet deal! I'll be using Red Sea blue bucket salt with this system.

The Artfully Acrylic Clearview lids are awesome. Got mine last week. Looks like a great build you have going here. Following...

Think about the snipersps bubblegum millie or the acid trip Millie. Probably 2 of my top 10 sps. You've already got 5. Lol

That aquascape looks great. Can't wait to see it wet and with all those sps on the rock.
