Reefing newb
well its been months since ive been on,so just an update,i picked up a 14g biocube last week and put 20lbs black live sand and 12 lbs of fresh live rock fully cycled as well as adding aged filter floss from my already existing 75g to boost the bacteria and faster cycle time

well thinking seahorses and some small corals,going to be alot of color contrast,will be getting some corals either tomarrow or friday
 
not sure how much flow but sure its around 100 gph,was only going to get dwarves everything else is to big,i been figuring out how to change the flow by diverting it in a couple dif directions by puting something in the output,not sure yet i got time to play with it though
 
well was thinking of diverting the flow more then reducing it if i can,dont have any ponys yet so i still have time to mess around with it for the time being
 
well got some corals for the 14 today,shipping did some damage,lost my purple tip frogspawn and a galaxia frag out of the 15 or so corals the zoas havent opened up but then again 5 mins isnt long enough for full open yet

Are they the dwarf ones? If so, are they eating frozen? If not, what are you feeding them? My buddy has like 30 of them that he sells for 10$ a piece, and if there is a good food substitute besides live brine shrimp, I'd pick some up!
 
well found a tiny mantis shrimp running around my tank and the sudden disapearence of my poor seahorses i finaly found the cause!
guess its now a mantis tank,
