New 24 gallon cube build

[Sarah155]

Just filled this up a few days ago. I'll purchase the lights next paycheck I'm thinking an Ai prime. This is my first time doing saltwater since I was a small child. I have two freshwater planted tanks. I have a nano sized house so this is the largest I could go. My plan is for some soft corals and a few fish.

Made some progress over the last couple of weeks. Set up a 10 gallon display refugium plumbed into the same sump, set up an ato, and added the first inhabitants this past weekend. Still trying to figure out flow the powerheads seem to blow the clownfish around too much. I have them coming on for about 5 minutes at a time a few times a day to keep the sand clean but thats it.

Added some macro algae to the refugarium. Letting the glass algae grow also, it is full of pods.

Tank is doing well, I added some corals and a watchman goby shrimp pair. They are awesome. The display refugium is growing a lot of algae, both micro and macro. It is really interesting to watch. Working on my photography, bear with me. Lots of critters also.

Heres a full tank shot of the display now that the lights are on. I gave the hermit crabs tons of spare shells, they seem to enjoy wearing different outfits and they are really entertaining.
