I’ve posted a few questions, but figured it was time to do an official tank introduction.
I jumped back into reefing after a long hiatus and boy has quite a bit changed. I was young (16-17) when I first started and didn’t really have the knowledge and capability of reef-keeping but now, at 30, I figured I’d jump back in.
Due to size restraints, I’ve gone with a small 7 gallon setup with an hob filter, hygge nano wave maker, Nicrew 30W hyperreef light. I went through a quick cycle with the help of live rock and live sand.
So far we’ve got 2 scarlet hermits, 2 astreas, 3 hitchhiker stomatellas, 1 hitchhiker brittle starfish who has disappeared after his first day in the tank.
For corals, we have 3 different Zoa frags, 2 venus fly trap palys, a pocillopora (slightly nervous about it popping up in other places), a GSP island that’s shown quick growth, a candy cane coral, and recently introduced a favia (pretty isolated due to aggression), and a ricordea florida frag.
I’ve had stable parameters and corals have seemed happy. I’m doing weekly 50% water changes, am feeding twice/ week (reef roids & red sea ab+). I did see an initial diatom bloom but it has subsided for the most part, along with the help of the cuc.
So far all seems to be running smoothly, but I need to slow down on stocking new frags… it’s so hard not to keep buying
