Hey everyone just wanna share my progress and ask advice here and there
I started a 90 gallon reef tank with a 30 gallon sump in March.
Live sand + live rock from established tanks. It’s now been about 4 months total.
Stock list
2 clowns
Foxface
Hippo tang
Sailfin tang
Purple tang
Flame angel
The purple tang was unfortunately an impulse buy but he’s doing great and he isn’t beefing with anyone.
I also have a bunch of coral doing well including 2 torches, 3 hammers and some wavy Xenia + gsp. I have 3 nems, all have grown tremendously.
In terms of filtration I started with just some rock in the sump + filter socks but now have a skimmer, uv light. I just installed a algae scrubber 3 days ago.
I over feed probably (2 cubes a day) but they seem to eat it all. My nitrates are around 10-12 and my phos was as high as 0.88 which is why I added the algae scrubber (surf 2x from SMF).
I’m assuming my nutrients will get better but am I done with fish? I’d love either a wrasse or 2 bangais.
