My aquarium is an AIO 50-55G acrylic I had picked up from a Saltwater store near me. The aquarium used to hold Mantis shrimp until I acquired it. This is my setup so far. Looking at getting frag tanks and such in the future and maybe a bigger home to have more aquarium space!

I like your rockscape. What are you planning to stock?

I am planning on making it mainly a Zoa garden with some fishes. Possibly a couple of Ocellaris and Clarkii's. Honestly, I am going to Preuss Pets (Lansing, MI) this weekend and that'll answer this question when I get back lol.
 
Looks like you’re off to a great start, following.
Thank you! Definitely been a bish the past week trying to get everything situated and getting all the gear I need set up. Looking at in the next week or so having a Phyto/copepod and Mysis farm going also.
 
That’s great, getting the copepods in soon will help with the diatoms if you haven’t had them yet.
Just now actually starting to get the influx of Diatoms today ahah..
 
Added a couple more babies today. Also have a black blenny and a shrimp goby pair that are hiding.

I worked at Preuss’s for years when I was at MSU. Great place.

That it is!! I’ve come to realize that the prices are a little higher than what I can get them in GR so I’ll just go out there to look mainly now
