    hi guys long time no post about my tanks. I ran into some financial trouble but with that behind me I am basically starting over.

    I have a 26 gallon bowfront tank with a new octopus HOB skimmer(freshly installed today)

    The inhabitants are 2 maroons on there way to becoming a pair, and one chalk basslet

    This tank is planned to be a mixed reef but dominated by sps.
    so far the only sps is a montipora.

    but I do have some zoas and a frogspawn (no pics).

    and one mushroom

    Chalk Bass! I want one. I'm thinking of getting one as part of the makeup of fish I will have in my 75. Any chance on getting more pics of it?
