After a long break I'm back,had a great deal on a 75 rr drop in my lap so I went for it.
I had the viaspectra lights lying around,the sump is a ice cap 24. Using carib sea life rock,agri-alive and crushed coral I ordered a life rock table im waiting to come in to redo the right side.
Flow is this little hygar amazon wave maker not a ton of flow but enough for now,I have a curve 5 skimmer to set up as well as a Coralie turbo twist uv. To mount the lights we had this piece of live edge hanging about,so I got 4 16" powder coated shelf brackets and made a mount. Im sure they'll be tweaks along the way but we like the results so far.

Threw the skimmer in tonight,it's a curve 5 letting it flow over till it gets a little run time and can adjust it better.

Went to absolutely Fish and grabbed an urchin and the wife fell in love with this naked clown so he's part of the gang.

So this morning I ripped the most annoying skimmer I've ever owned out of the sump,cant get it dialed in for anything.
Put my uv on line running 120 gph so at that low of a flow will zap parasites and free floating algae (from what they say).

Well,I decided I'm just going to do soft corals since I watched the live sale from NY Aquatic last weekend. I grabbed a 4" adult colored emperor and a cleaner shrimp. I know in the past he had issues but with what I got today,I won't be afraid to order from him again. I'll post pics later when he settles in more.

Picked up a green polyp leather frag from Boehmtown today and it's settled in nicely already. Thanks again for a great size frag
