Welcome to my build! I previously had a build with this tank but lost it all to some remodeling that crashed the tank. I knew i wanted to get it back up and running one day so i put everything in storage and i got back my motivation. I have now placed my Innovative Marine 25g Lagoon in my home office where I can keep a close eye on things. This will be a very tech heavy build, mix of zoas and SPS, with a few fish and inverts. Im terrible about documenting and recording while im working on the tank so rather than force myself to do it I will update what I have setup to date and do my best to grab pictures of future progress ( I have a lot of stuff to do still)
Equipment
IM 25g Lagoon
Sicce 1.5 return pump w/ 2x random flow generators
Apex (2nd gen?) w/ tablet display
Radion XR15 g3 Radion XR15 gen5
MP10Wqd controlled with WXM module
Isealife Fleece Roller 2x filter floss
Tunze nano ATO
Inkbird controller w/ 2x 75w neotherm heaters (inkbird needs setup)
Intank refugium basket w/ IM ChaetoMax light installed on the back aquamaxx skimmer w/ co2 scrubber
Trident
DOS setup for AWC
Livestock
2 Mocha-Storm Clowns RIP (ich or velvet)
1 peppermint shrimp RIP (vanished)
1 Midas Blenny
1 Diamond Watchman Goby
1 Blackcap Basselet
3 Trochus snails
5 Hermits
3 Mexican Turbo Snails
Assorted Zoas
Assorted SPS
1 Gonioporo (color was too pretty to pass up but not in my original stock list)
The tank was cycled with Fritz Turbo 9...really amazing stuff. It was amazing how fast this thing cycled. I have never used the bottled bacteria before and I am a true convert! I have a trident and a DOS on the way. Trident so I can track dKH so im comfortable with adding SPS and DOS for automatic waterchanges. I will add a couple more DOS when its time to dose, im thinking water changes will suffice for now. Rooms a mess from all the setup but I'll get some tank shots up and once i get the room cleaned some pictures of the whole setup.
*Edit* sorry for the terrible pictures. One of my goals on this build is to learn how to photograph these things.
