    After many set backs I am now proud of my aquarium. My first nuvo cracked during the filling process. Innovatove Marine sent me a new tank. Its been 10 months with only a few fish lost due to a power outage. Also lost a lta after a month it decided to let lose of the sand. Anyway all is well.
    Current stocking list:
    Fish: purple firefish, percy clown, b&w percy clown, scooter blenny, 6 line wrasse.
    Coral: galaxia, torch, 3 zoas, paly, gsp.
    Lighting: Reef Breeders basic led fixture.
    Skimmer: innovative marine nano
    Filtration: brs carbon and gfo, chaeto.

    Bump I need to get a camera that fts doesn't do it justice. Forgot to mention the torch lost 4 heads on the power outage. Since it has grown 3 more. Pretty cool.

    How do you like that skimmer?
    Did you change out the stock pumps?

    I think we all have had our ups and downs with our tanks... I know last year here in Columbus Ohio we had that bad storm and we was without power for 7 days.... We was so freaked out...

    Skimmer works great. Problem is snails collect in the return section of the tank so they are always clogging the outlet of the skimmer. So half the time it doesn't collect like it should. Its very annoying. I have the stock return pump still going strong.

    Bnw I can't imagine how much stress that was. Mine was only out for a day and I was freaking out.
