    Here goes, 72bf with 20L sump/fuge. I added today an elegance coral, a galaxea, and a bluestar leopard wrasse(sorry no pics, its buried in the sand for now). Other inhabitants are a couple cleaners, a peppermint in the fuge, 3 heads of frogspawn, a frag of trumpet coral and a couple types of zoas.

    The tank has been up since early august with everything having been moved from a 29g that had been running for 4 months.

    Thanks! In the last pic you can see just a slight bit of cyano I think. I also have a couple spots of GHA. I am hoping these are just the normal stages a tank goes through and will take care of themselves.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !

    Very nice set up. Sounds like a normal stage to me, I always get a bout of cynobacteria and GHA about 3 months after set up. After that the neon green coralline.

    Gotta love those bowfronts. Having more space than a 29 must be nice too.

    The neon green coralline is starting now. It is much more evident with just my actinics on. It is a world of difference from the 29. Thank you for all the compliments!
