Tank Builds

So, my wife, Alex and I have been into reef tanks since 2011. It's been quite the journey. Our main setup is a 450-gallon display tank. It's been with us through thick and thin. But, life happened—we had our daughter, Izzi, and, well, the tank didn't get the love it deserved for a while. Recently, w

Well, this one was difficult to build up so first we will go with an awesome what it looks like now pic and go into the stand and tidepool tank that is attached with same sump as things progress through this build.

A year ago, coming back to the hobby after a hiatus. Our main tank (450) needed a lot of work to eliminate algae and get the parameters back in line and stable. To satisfy the desire to have corals "right now!" I took some live rock from the long established tank and started this innovative marine 2
