I've been learning more about our Canon DSLR and playing with a short 24mm macro lens and an orange filter for our kit lens. Here are some pictures from the last month I just downloaded: Full tank shot today, you'll notice giant stunner colony is 90% fragged away (front/center): Red...

The new 5L BRS dosing reservoirs have been awesome, they are more than half full after a week of dosing which makes me less nervous about keeping them full. They do take up a lot of room in my cabinet and you can't see the sump as well :-/ I was running our carbon/GFO reactors for 12 hours...

I'm psyched to see more club DBTC coral, this is one of my favorite things we do in this club. Thanks for sharing your coral.

I've had my own close calls like this :-/ We had a return pump fail overnight the morning we were flying out to the east coast for a week. I was able to give the pump a 7am vinegar bath and get it working, but it was a ton of stress. I'm happy to help any folks nearby if you have a tank...

This is a cool idea and I'm jealous of your dive training. I do think you'll always have a better experience with fish/coral/inverts that can survive in someone elses tank vs. wild caught. Some folks seem to put a premium on wild specimens, but I'll always prefer ones that have proven...

I want to say we spent about $3000 on equipment and $500 on coral/fish for this tank, but it might be more. We moved here after tearing down two nano tanks we loved, so I spent more money to get a nice tank up ASAP vs. waiting for a better deals. Gear we already had/re-used (~ $1500): 3x...

I don't know the euro-reef skimmers or the pumps, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. It sounds like @xcaret and @Coral reefer have some great ideas to save money with some used gear. I'd trust those guys to work out a good option. I've had a great experience with the Reef Octopus 150SSS...

Both of these frags have grown into nice softball sized colonies, but I haven't fragged them yet.

Done.

Should be fixed now.

Sorry to hear how difficult things have been, but the tank looks great.

I enabled the structured DBTC tracking for this thread and updated the tree, thanks to @neuro for building this.

Let me see if I can fix that.

I strongly recommend getting an Ecotech MP10 if you have the budget. It made a big difference in coral health in our first 29g nano tank (I also started off with Korallia nano 425s). If you are on a tighter budget, consider buying one used or trying one of the Jebao RW-4 or RW-8 pumps. Jebaos...

It is.

Darn, I should have brought it with me when I came down to see you. I didn't think you were doing many acros these days. Sure, I'll hold one for you.

I have two 2" frags of this if anyone is interested.

I've got two medium sized frags left and one small one. Come get them. Feel free to take one of these @Flagg37 if @Vhuang168 doesn't hook you up. The purple and green montis have all been claimed.

Welcome back and good luck in the new year. You should post a tank journal for the new build!

Great video, almost more impressive for the accidental photo bombs from tangs, buterflys, and other awesome fish.
