Hey Everyone,
So I took about a 2 year break from reefing. Prior to that I had a reef tank for around 3 years. This time around doing a 20 Gallon AIO Red Sea Tank. Going about a different approach this time with start up and cycle. I’ve added live sand and live rock from the LFS but I’m adding corals first. So far so good. I’ve added a green star and he’s already growing and I have more starter corals arriving tomorrow. Once the tank in cycled in a month or so (still keeping track of ammonia etc) I will get to adding 2 clowns and clean up crew. Not in a rush this time around. My goal is to have my hands in the tank as little as possible (still do a weekly 5 gallon water change) but other than that just enjoy it this time around instead of messing with all the dosing and things that burnt me out last go around.
