Hi SRC!

Been a long time since I have a tank thread. And decided to start one here for record keeping and sharing :)

Started this nano tank in April and here's a soft recap for myself and you guys!

I am using the full range of FM zeolight system without reactors for stone. So far it has been working for me. The only downside is that you have something to do everyday. (Dosing/shaking stones)

Will start more frequent updates from now on.

APRIL 2015

MAY

Diatom outbreak. Transferred fishes and corals from my 32L nano tank over to kick start my system.

Added more SPS received from reefing buddies and of course added some myself.

JUNE

Here's when I got a little bit crazy on stocking.

You will see the progression in this month. Thankfully I haven't lose any SPS till date.

JULY

Upgraded my lights from Nano Razor to ATI!!

Always good to invest in a tank cover. To prevent fishes from jumping and if you have cats. :)

Here's more updates on the tank.

Wow! SPS in a nano!! Bro, how you keep your parameters stable with such a small water volume?? :blink:

power sia...

I think more importantly. It has to be stable in a range. My KH drop to 6 before and went up to 9 before too. As long as it's stable in a range, it should be okay. I check my KH and calcium every 3 days because I manual dose.
