YEA...Well I actually have 15 in already (anthias,chromis,wrasses,misc) I plan on finishing up the coral installation (although one is never "finished!!")
...Then stocking with larger Tangs and Fox Face and Clowns
I can't rush my fish stocking because I do not consider my tank "settled in" yet (even though the parameters are solid).If I finish stocking too soon I might push the biology of the tank over its limit.

Oh no I fully agree and I knew there were more fish in there. Just thought it was funny in that particular shot.

Very nice Ricardo. It is coming along fabulously.

Awesome build! I was thinking of getting a new sumo for my tank, yours looks very well built, who built it? Also what size sterilizer did u get I as thinking of adding one as well... I have ozone reactor but my orp has been above 330 so I haven't really used it. Excellent build!

My sump was custom built by MY REEF CREATIONS (MRC).
My sterilizer is Pentair/Emperor Smart high-output # 025080/80 (600 gal)
I also run an Ozone reactor.

Hi, how are your Hectors getting on ? I noticed 2 in one of your pictures, were they mature fish from a previous system and well fattened etc ?
I'm waiting at least 1yr from start up to add a mix of Rainfords and Hectors, both are quite tricky.

They are stand-up citizens! The Rainfords never stop working. They were purchased new and I have not lost one.(even with my snowflake eel lurking about)

zee plan is to stop now, and let the acros grow into each other. Its pretty well packed. I still have to put some plating monti's on the front edges of the shelves (in front of the acros)The bottom of the tank is also well stocked now with soft stuff and Zoa's and Chalices. I'm trying to keep the sand clear of coral
