beautiful tank. I hope i can setup a tank that looks like this.

I'm just starting out with my first reef tank. A newbie questions. What is this branch coral? Is it acro?

It is a blue digitata...far easier then any acros

Fish are well. Sold some coral to make room for some new ones....LTA wouldn't stay put so I sold it. Regal angel brought velvet and unfortunately died from it but everyone else was treated and survived.

Also just changed my lights from Current USA to Reef Brite Lumi Lite pros

I also just changed from a canister to HOB. Figure it will be easier to change media more often.

What HOB did you change to?

Tidal 55. Right now I only have one but will be adding a second. I ordered some 3d printed baffles that will reroute the output under the water as I don't like the splashing or bubbles.

Well I upgraded to a real reef tank. Build link below.

Build Thread - Innovative Marine 100 INT build

If been in and out of the hobby for the last few years...my current tank is a 60 gallon Marineland. Its not drilled and all I use is a canister filter. I wanted something new, and high end looking....I also wanted something with more depth. It was between the RS 350, 425 and I also thought...
