More of a reset than a build

After nuking my tank with nopox and dinos, I lost almost everything but a few zoas and the fish some snails and hermits. I waited months to start putting in coral again. I got my nitrates dialed in using a Donovan's nitrate destroyer. These are the first Stony corals added in. So far so good. The full tank shot is a good representation of what the colors are in real life. Still working on the bubble algae but the emeralds are doing their job.

40 gallon breeder with 40 gallon sump. Lifereef 24 with DCP 8000 pushing the Venturi. 3 current USA R24s at 100% all channels. Filter sock but I don't change it very often. Chaeto fuge with the bigger zetlight flat panel. And the 2 jebao wave makers.

Thanks! I started this off with dry rock. Something I will never do again.

Had to lower the light intensity the Stylo started to bleach. Found a large conch like snail snacking on the spongodes.

So far these are doing well. Hammer is starting to split into two heads.
