Thanks for the support @Kerber13. Our goal was to creat two separate structures that ran past each other in the center of the tank so the scape looked like one when viewed straight on. I will try to get a few more angles to share soon (from the end, top down, etc.)Ain’t that the truth. I love you’re rockwork @SEPDXReef. I consider reefing an art form and rockwork is one of the hardest things to create because it needs to be the bones of your piece. You did a great job. Following along!
Clean. I like it.Build Update - 08/04/2022
Progress on the tank has slowed down this week as we are nearly complete with the bulk of the system. Since the last update we have the rock and sand installed and most of the gear in the sump.
We have yet to receive the Reef Mat or set up the Neptune DOS pumps as there is no livestock in the system yet.
Upcoming:
We placed a few filter fabric pieces that were in use in another tank into this system to help seed the beneficial bacteria in the tank. We plan on introducing a few fish (1-3) in the next week or so along with a consistent amount of starter bacteria to get the tank cycling. From there we will slowly continue to add fish until we reach a stopping point somewhere around 50% stocked. Once the system has time to settle in to the amount of fish introduced, we will add the CUC and introduce the first Zoas.
We will share our current stocking list plans as soon as we finalize the list
Happy Reefing All!
Exciting update! I really like the white tail tang, I think they are the prettiest of the bristletooth tangs (Ctenochaetus).STOCKING TIME
We moved our two Darwin clowns from the Waterbox 70.2 into the peninsula a week ago today. We performed a full panel of testing on the existing display and the new peninsula and the parameters are all extremely close. Ammonia is 0 ppm and nitrate and phosphate are present. Time to start introducing additional fish!
Give us your recommendations on tangs as that is the first group we want to begin with.
Happy Reefing All!
What amazing colors! We just saw a nice Cole tang at the LFS today and it has inspired us on the bristle tooth tang variety. This white tail is much more impressive in color. Thanks for the share!Exciting update! I really like the white tail tang, I think they are the prettiest of the bristletooth tangs (Ctenochaetus).

Thank you for your input, we hadn’t heard this before about the snowflakes and we are re-thinking adding them as we love our inverts as well.IME I wouldn't put a snowflake eel in a tank with shrimp. When I got mine he only ate live ghost shrimp until I weaned him onto frozen shrimp. I keep him well fed so he doesn't bother the snails, the conch or the fish but he would hunt down and eat any shrimp in a heartbeat.
