24G

Ive been wanting to focus only on sps lately so i decided to use my 24g that was laying around. I broke dowk the 75g a few days ago and i used that water and cycled rock to kick start the process along with media i had in bags.
For this tank i choose to go bare bottom, i just dont wanna have to deal with all the detritus in the sand. I ordered a stand for the tank cause i originally didn't have one, it ended up being perfect size for everything to be housed in.

Made a minimalist rock sculpture to leave room for sps to grow in the future with enough height. I let it run for a day or two before adding the clowns and royal gamma. I also added a bunch of trochus to help with cleanup.

Took a little bit of time to plan out how to fit all the apex equipment in the stand, luckily everything fit perfectly especially the two jugs one for salt and the other for RODI.
I use the apex to do automatic water changes which i have a line hooked up to the sink along with the RODI system. This makes water changes a breeze not having to lift water. I need to hook up the lines to the dosers and route them to the proper place.

I finally got around to using the par meter these where my results at full power with two LED 50 watts red sea lights, when it comes to growing sps is this the ideal par i want?

For a sps dominated tank I would say ur nailing par. May want a place with slightly lower light for newly Aquired sps to get use to the light. So u don't risk bleaching them.
