Tank size is 29g + a 20g refugium with 6" (70lbs) of sand.
42lbs of LR and ~30lbs of sand in the display.
Salt is red sea cp
Lighting is with 5x par 38leds (2x 54w, 3x 12w)
Skimmer- Aqua C remora pro (added in the last 2 months)
Parameters I shoot for:
sg: 1.0260
temp: 81f
Kh: 8.5-9 dkh
Ca: 420 mg/l
Mg: 1500-1300 mg/l
nitrate: .5
PO4: never over .06
All corals were grown from 1-2" frags.
Most of the LR comes from the Tampa bay saltwater, only 15lbs come from Haiti; which was before I knew what impact LR collection had on the ecosystem.
The intent was to have a skimmerless tank but I added an aqua c remora pro 2 months ago because I grew tired of only having 2 fish lol.
Stocking:
1x disco blenny (Meiacanthus smithi)
1x swisguard basset (Liopropoma swalesi)
1x 6-line wrasse
1x blue/green chromis
Pics (sorry about the plastic bottle, trying to catch a wrasse):
