Finally! New place...new tank!

[Mellow]

Bought a really nice branch octopus from aquamarin at a good price. Helps that it is 2 mins drive from my new place. But parking seems scarce there

[Mellow]

Notice development of diatoms as with most new tanks. Slowing down purchases further till things stablizes further an after I get my parameters right

[Mellow]

Current parameters still really low. Will use the new week to bump this up to levels that I want. Good news is I've rigged up my bubble magus dosing pump and can now automate the process. If only there is a way to make testing of water easier.:

Mg: 990

Calcium: 360

dKH: 6.8

Final pics for the day. One of my 2 fishes.

It's a frag from its previous 5 feet tank! Pink will turn out very nice with good care!

Got a cauliflower today but not very placed with its placement. Will use this weekend to fiddle with it once it stabilises in my tank

I meant not pleased with the placement

Transferred my long serving normal clowns over today too

So far so good in the hitchhiker zoas that came with my live rocks. Phew.

Frogspawn and star polyp from aquamarin

[Mellow]

Full tank shot as of now. Will start adding more corals this weekend. Fishes will probably wait a while more. Luckily I'm not so much of a fish person.

Enjoying the good polyp extension and I'm glad the frogspawn is not touching the jewel. Closest I can place them

together with jewel being stung

hi Alex, most probably not gonna add any more corals. Will use the additional height for tall corals instead or to allow growth hopefully.

Any bros experienced this before? When I touched my ATI light housing when it is turned on and none of my hands are in the water, it feels normal. However, when my elbow accidentally touched the light housing when my hand is in the water, I get a shock from the light set. I thought there was a leak from the light set and tested it with a test pen but it didn't light up. I wonder what might be happening.

Couldn't resist the powder blue tang from ah beng. Finally some more life in the tank

[Mellow]

Decided to get 2 brown out sps from pinnacle at a good price to try out but I think there is potential

[Mellow]

Looks like im heading for a evenly mixed reef again instead of having mostly sps. Zoas from Iwarna

[Mellow]

So glad I found a nicer looking spot for my cauliflower

[Mellow]

Anyone able to id this? From Iwarna Aussie shipment. Love the pastel purple. Looks like an oxy... Definitely not a monti though
