Couple videos of the new Yellow Choris Wrasse addition, after QT and a few days in an acclimation box. The Male Splendid Pintail Fairy has taken a liking. All lit up, fins out dying for attention, even begging me for attention, (more than usual!).

Other Stock Includes:
Pair lighting maroon clowns
Firefish
Tiger Spot Goby
Splendid Pintail (male)
Yellow Choris (just added)
Zoas
Mushrooms
Carpet Anenome
Mini Max Carpet
RFA
RBTA
Misc. Frags
CUC, ceriths, dwarf ceriths, blue leg, mexican turbo, astrea, scarlet leg etc.
1 Fighting Conch
3 Peppermint Shrimp (had a bad antispia breakout)
 
Always a pretty and active fish and will eat flatworms should any pop up
 
I have a yellow coris, pintail, rohmboid and 6 line together in mine with no problems.
i really want one more, some type of flasher! Just don’t want to push it in the 65G

65g DT 80g total. Lot of rockwork and hiding spots 9 fish total.
The 4 wrasses
Purple fire fish
Indigo dottyback
Tailspot blenny

Oops I forgot my blue streak cleaner wrasse so I have 5 total.

Tried to add a yellow watchman goby but the reef neighborhood said no and I had to bring him back to the LFS so my tank is complete and everyone is happy and healthy.

Awesome list there!! Whatcha running in the sump for filtration? I have the Bashsea Biofuge with the reef octo 110sss, refuge with chateo some live rock and bio block then to the return pump, BRS GFO/Carbon reactor as well.

Mind sharing a photo of your rock work? I have been thinking about adding some more rock in the back. All my arches came with pre drilled holes that are perfect hiding spots

My tanks is a Red Sea XL300 so standard V3 sump with filter socks, fuge with rubble and marinepure and then Eshopps 200 oversized skimmer before the vectra M2 return pump. Since my fuge has been growing over the past 1.5 months it finally seems to be stabilizing my nutrients at good levels. Nitrate 13 and phosphate. 07 today. I only run a bag of carbon or chemipure in my sump. I use a banshee 10g ATO and just purchased a red sea doser but not hooked up yet.

For some reason R2R is still messed up and won't let cell phone pics load. They said they fixed this problem but apparently not so my tank pics won't load.

Yeah we have a pretty similar setup then, I have the 5 gallon bashsea ATO. no dosing yet, i think the tank is still too new for it, but will come eventually.

Here’s a pic of my setup, prior to the reactor, was using Chemipure blue hut. pilsner get enough water movement through it for my liking. One bad thing is the return pump section is 5” x 5” so finding pumps is hard. Currently running a cheap Vivosun 800 GPH which is axruslly
perfect flow even though you can’t adjust it. I built the stand and used leftover cabinet doors to match, had to please the wife lol

Beautiful tank with an open reef design. I like your light system also blends in seamlessly. I have a ton more rock in mine with an arch in the middle. Basically 2 rock islands connected by the arch. I'll try and post pics again. Not sure why mine keep getting rejected by R2R.

thank you!
I like your concept almost went for it but went simple. I’m sure it’ll change eventually
