I've had reef tanks going back over 25 years, off and on, but have only had a little FOWLR for the last five, as I've been too busy for anything more involved due to building a house, among other endeavors.
Innovative Marine Fusion 10 with a single blue damsel.
I just recently picked up a 15 gallon Aqueon rimless from Petco when they had their sale, $50 sounded like a deal.
I've had a bunch of dead rock stored away from when I shut down a 125 gallon some time ago, the largest of which is 32 pounds. It takes up a lot of the tank but there are a zillion little caves. Moved the small rock from the 10 over to the 15 for an instant cycle. Below you can see the darker rock pieces that were taken from the Fusion and the lighter colored rock is the 32 pounder. And Mr. Damsel is visible, he loves all the new rooms!
The plan is to move the smaller rock back to the 10 gallon for a coral tank, and add some color varieties of macroalgae and a couple more fish to the 15 gallon. Keeping things simple, just a Tunze for circ and a heater, very low bio-load and water changes. Bare bottom with 1/4" starboard.
Been a while since I was on any reef forums, seems like this one is super-active.
