Looking good, definitely a clean look!  I hear you on the snails.  Got a few nerites from ipsf and found one on the cabinet headed towards the carpet!

Thank you! And yeah in some of my older builds I’d find them on the floor…

This tank is stunning, great job!

Looks great!

So I think I figured out why the zoas haven’t been really taking off. I think they’re getting blasted with too much light even at the bottom on the tank. I noticed the zoas that are more vertical or shaded seem to be doing better. I also think the torch is also likely getting too much light even in the sand at the bottom of the tank. Thinking about trying to move a lot of that over to the left side of the tank near the bottom where it’s shaded. If it doesn’t like the strong light it shouldn’t grow all the way up to the SPS anyway. Then I’ll also have space for more SPS on the rock on the right!

New FTS!  Not too much has changed, just upping the dosage of all-for-reef per day.  Also moved the torch and some zoas to a lower light location because I think they're getting blasted with too much light even on the sand.

 Tank is doing well!! Had a temperature issue in the house and lost one small SPS frag and most of the red dragon but managed to save two small frags that are now doing well on the floating shelf in the back on the left.  Also remounted the pocillopora on top of the small main rock on the right since it outgrew its previous location and will also provide some shade for the zoas which I think they prefer.  Let me know what you think!

Everything is filling in nice, it's looking good! You're almost out of room!

Thanks!! Yeah no room for more frags at this point, just growing it all out!

Awesome. I love these mid-size, rimless tanks! You've done a great job with aquascaping, both in form and color.

Thank you, that is much appreciated!!

Things are growing out nicely!  Not really too many updates which is a good thing at this point.  Had the macro out to take pictures of some frags I listed today so also took a top down of the pocillopora colony which is getting huge (respectively for my tank...).  

 

 

[teamschreiba]

Well the tank survived the move! Made quite a few new frags but so far no losses. Also took the opportunity to rescape the right hand side of the tank so I’ll try and take some pictures once I have the frag rack out of the tank. 

[teamschreiba]

Finally some new pictures!  Almost everything is growing great at this point.  Zoas are definitely slow but I think that's because I've really optimized the tank for SPS.  Let me know what you think!

The tank is looking great. I love the floating GSP island. It's a beautiful tank

Thanks! Have to keep it to the island otherwise it would take over haha. It did start growing on the glass before I moved too but I think I like it better confined just to the island.

Had the macro out and snapped one of my only torch.  Thinking about clearing space to add some more...

I need to get a new FTS but was able to get this quick top down shot!  Not a lot of space left to grow...
