Dual sponge filters on a 29 with ember tetra, nice low tech setup. Clean scape.

What do you feed the gramma and the clownfish, just rotating frozen mysis or do you throw flake in too? Mine's still solo in there

Your zoas and goniopora look happy in there. What's your dosing routine to keep alk stable with that much coral load?

No CO2 but running rotala and monte carlo, are you dosing excel or just liquid ferts on a schedule.

Did you fight through an algae phase getting this stable or was it smooth from the start

Yeah dragon stone loves to grow the green fuzz early on. Did it clear up once the otos and shrimp got established or you still fighting it

Goniopora's a brave pick for this setup - not much trimming to speak of on a reef but the placement looks proper neat

How's the goniopora doing under the 600EA? Mine sulks unless flow is indirect. Any polyp extension issues in the corners?

A 75 with just the one goby right now... Are you planning on adding more fish once it's more established, or keeping it minimal like this?

Not really my area (all freshwater over here) but curious if the chromis school together or mostly ignore each other.

Royal gramma and a bta in the same 40 gal, bold move (in a good way). Where'd the rock come from, that's a nice chunk of structure

That seiryu stone in a CO2 tank makes me nervous for GH creep. Are you cutting your water with RO at all?

How's the eheim classic keeping up with bioload in a 10g, I've been curious about running one that small

No carpet in a saltwater tank haha, you mean the chromis school? Still a fair question, dry start or flood on the rock?

Carpet looks great, is that dwarf hairgrass? How long did it take to fill in on 5 gallons

Ember tetras look great in that scape, any fry surviving with the shrimp in there too?

Bristlenose seems happy grazing in there, tank looks pretty clean for a shrimp tank gone rogue. How's the pleco handling the rotala jungle, does he bulldoze through it much?

Second scape in a 40 breeder and it shows, that zoa colony is spreading fast. Dosing alk manually or auto?

Corys look happy in there, love bronze corys in a planted setup like this. Is the vallisneria melting at all under the twinstar or holding up fine?

How's salinity holding steady with just biweekly changes on a 90? I'd think that'd drift more than I'd want to deal with

Lol this is a planted tank, not reef, but those danios do look happy zipping through there

Dual sponge filters on 125g of demasoni seems like a lot of bioload to lean on sponges alone, how's your ammonia holding up.

Otos look happy grazing that spiderwood. Tank's still young but the layout's promising haha
