New build for a guy who is close to no longer being a newbie.

Will likely set up a new build thread but until then wanted to show my new 20 gallon office tank. Keep in mind all the rock came from my 105 gallon tank or my old 10 gallon that I moved into this 20 in my office. Also this has been several months of work building up to this.

Nice. What kind of lights are those?

I like your rockscape, I've noticed that it's bare floored, are you planning to move any fish in with the corals? If yes, what one's. I know it would only be a very few since it's a 20 gallon tank, looking forward to your future post about this build.

lights are AI PRIME not the HD versions. Not happy with them at all for one reason... they hummm LOUD any time the schedule has the white and one other color is below 100% intensity. If they didn't hum so loud I think I would be happy. Likely going to try and sell them on craigslist maybe 100 bucks each and get a reef breeders just to try something new. I have kessils on my main home tank. Thank you lady navy vet for your service and your kind comment. I did move fish you just cant see them. Antenna goby is moved still looking for his pistol shrimp buddy in the old 10 gallon. Also have a black mollie brackish freshwater fish acclimated to salt he loves algae. I also have a baby lawn mower blenny on loan from my 105. He will go back once my algae cycle is done, which should be here in about 3 weeks. The mollie has been in the tank a month, the lawnmower 2 weeks and the antenna goby 48 hours. Even though I cycled fast with my established rock I am still checking ammonia every 2 days just to make sure.

also not sure if i will stay bare bottom. if my pistol shrimp is found tomorrow I will add substrate for him. If I don't find him i might leave it bare for a few weeks or months.
