Following! Love watching fish rooms take shape, and checking out what creative ideas people come up with for equipment and design.

Thank you for following along, lots of organizing and cleaning ahead of me, but happy with the start :)

Sump mangrove, even better!

I highly doubt the mangroves will do much for nutrients or ph, but cool for sure, and why not. I am w/o sand, so hopes are the suspended root system will somehow, eventually scrub the water, and in fact pull nutrients and stabilize ph, or at least close the gap. When I add a growout tank, it will most certainly be near opposite display schedule, staggered at the least.
I am spending more time in my filtration room, and that's with a brand new display, lol :)
I am a nerd for sure ;)

cool man!
How aggressive is he? I mean does he attack other fish in your tank?

No not really, mainly the female, occasionally he gives off that intimidating vibe, but if you saw my fish, they are huge, and after the ptsd from the arc eye hawk(removed), they can handle anything, lol

Nice tank! I loved your aquaforest reef

Thank you, that was my favorite reef project yet, but those one destined to surpass, it's really dialing in :)
This one is AF Salt, passive AF Carbon, Heavy Skim, heavy feeding, water change. Basic, Kalkwasser to match evaporation fully saturated, then ESV 2 part. 10ml of each RS color program on Friday. Water change every 2 weeks.
