ReeferMadness80G’s Shallow SPS Reef

[ReeferMadness80G]

For reference, I just looked back and start date was June 24th and I'd say I've only been brown snot free for...a week, maybe 10 days.

Funny. My start date was June 29th!

Our tanks look much the same, of course yours is scaped way better, but we both have a tank full of tiny little sticks and the uglies. lol

I'm gonna check out your thread! I actually just added more rock to fill it out a little more. The scape just started to look plain to me and I'm too impatient to let the coral fill it out.

<-- Loser. I have never taken the time to start a build thread.

Things look a little better after the scrub and 48 blackout. I'm not WOWED but we'll see where it goes from here.

Nothing good happens fast in a reef tank. LOL I finally got to say it!!!

Personally, I would just keep pulling and scrubbing excess algae, add more CUC, and wait it out... it just looks like tank acne to me, it's a teenager... Another month or so and it'll be cleared up.

 

[ReeferMadness80G]

If anyone is curious this is the travertine I used.

Finally got a Midas Blenny! Love this fish, I suggest you get one!

 

[SashimiTurtle]

Nice fish! It's on my stock list for my 90 cube build...

 

[Antics]

The best fish!

 

[Katrina71]

Cool little fish! What did you name him?

 

[ReeferMadness80G]

I just refer to him as Midas Blenny. I wanted to name him Blenny Kravitz but he never answered to it when I did.

Seems like I've seen nail polish the same color somewhere

This awesome build and you can't mix saltwater, go figure! Lol. Seriously though, really nice tank man.

Yeah man. I'm loving the progress. How do you like the travertine tiles? Would you use them again?
