Hello everyone! I'm pretty new to the hobby and started building my first tank about a year ago.
I've been taking very slow steps forward in the hopes that I wont mess anything up :grimacing-face:, but nevertheless here is my current tank set up. It's a far cry from most of the other systems I've seen here, but I guess you gotta start somewhere :face-exhaling:

I'll be making some new posts in the other threads looking for advice/solutions to some issues I'm having with my system, so please keep an eye out for those if you'd like to try and help :)

I would love to hear any thoughts, suggestions, or feedback you're willing to give :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

Here are the current details of my tank, please let me know if there's any other information I should include!
A few details about my tank:
- 28 Gal
- 1 Mocha Clownfish and Black Storm Clownfish
- 1 Tuxedo Urchin + cowboy hat
- 1 Cleaner Shrimp
- 1 Blood Shrimp
- 1 Fighting Conch
- 2 Nassarius snails
- a handful of Mushrooms
- 3 Dwarf red hermit crabs
- 1 Honeycomb Leptastrea Frag

The below were added two days ago, and will hopefully all become new members of the tank!

- 2 Acan Frags
- 1 Acan Colony with tissue damage (it was heavily discounted, hoping it will pull through)
- 1 Slytherin Mushroom
- 3 Zoa Frags
- 1 Favia frag
- 1 Kenya Tree frag (had some Pulsing Xenia hitch hiking as well)

Here's the Oldest photo I have of my tank Back from June 2024 (please ignore the dead birdsnest):
