My 25g reef tank & sump (Loads of photos and videos)

I had used 75% of my old water, 100% old live rock and 25% old sand. the daitoms have started to appear and are now slowly vanishing (maybe due to my two snails munching on them) fishes is just 1 chromis for now. iv not yet tested any of the water parameters but 1 thing is for sure that my corals are doing way better than before. my green paly and my yellow zoa were under complete stress in my old tank but are now blooming and doing really well. no signs of stress in chromis. will test the water today or next week. will start adding fishes and more corals after a week or 2.

 

coralline algae has already started to appear on the rocks......

 

here are the pics of wild caught snails and coralling algae tiny spots on the dead rock.

Some Changes in my sump....

the out let pipe from the chiller has been shifted into the fuge just above the water level so that it gets more flow and some surface agitation its not causing and air bubbles too. here are the pics.
