Daniel's 22G Reef

[NVTE]

I have 15 gallon shallow reef and spare 22 gallon CADLIGHT laying around.
Upgrade time.....

22 gallon CADLIGHT AIO, but the display is too narrow, so I decided to take out the whole in the back filter.
4x 24 W HO T5 with ReefBrite All blue LED supplement.
10 gallon sump from my current set up. I am going to connect it when the rock is cycled.
NAC 6 protein skimmer.
Maxijet 1200 as return pump.
Powerhead : koralia 1 or Tunze 6025 (from my tank) or Vortech MP10, or Tunze 6095 wide flow.
200 watt Eheim heater.

Tanks with whole back filter removed.


Leak test. passed.


Sand and rock in.


repairing water to fill. I am going to do water change my 15 gallon tank and use old water to cycle the rock.

Cycle the tank. Can't wait to transfer

here the tank pic. Add CAD pipeless skimmer. Seem like good skimmer to pull out good enough of skimmate without livestock.

Nice. Goodluck with build.

Updated

Cycle went well.
Ammonia 0 ppm
Nitrite 10 ppm.

Still have to wait another week, cause I fragged out corals from old rock and let them heal before the move.


My Wyoming Clownfish Pair is patiently waiting to move in.

Looks a little crammed but other than that it looks good

Yes it was. New tank sit on same stand that my old tank was, so I had to do quick transfer at quick as possible.
Updated. Able to glue few corals to main rock and 4.5 gallon waterchange. Hope not too stress for corals and my pair of Wyoming Clownfish.
Will try to remove the eggcrate frag rack as soon as possible. It look hideous in the tank.

This tank is going to look good when it fills in.

What up bro? The 40 B was year ago already bro. I was upgraded to 115 gallon , then down to 15 gallon and now this 22. I got mix id for anenome. Some say Inferno and some say rainbow. I dont know anymore. It was rescued by me when it is almost dead and tiny.

Nice start! How is the Kessil working out so far? What do you feed the fish and the SPS corals? That Tort looks super! Subscribed to follow.

Thanks. I actually didn't use Kessil after all. I missed the look and grow of T5 so I just stick with what I have from beginning. T5 + LED supplement.

Once a reefer always is a reefer
