🍹 BAR REEF 🍹

[Frigus Reef]

Soooo I’ll have to do an update via YouTube to explain the vibe on the twenty long now there’s a lot to cover lol.

SPS corals are growing very well in there, we have very heavy stocking but still low nutrients. Lots of spot feeding or else corals get mad. I’ve been able to throw dying LPS in and bring them back so I’m happy about that. There’s also been a steady copepod population and I’ve had sponges and random macroalgaes sprout up all over. In the video I’ll go over everything

I also will start covering my second tank on this thread as well. It’ll be BTA dominated. Clean up crew will be Californian natives but no hard guidelines. Just a nice Californian inspired tidal pool kinda vibe. I can’t have giant green anemones or aggregating anemones as they’re not available in the hobby so I’ll instead just look for what inverts I can I’m actually really excited as the tank is a weird shape and really shallow. It’s an MRC acrylic tank. Here’s some pictures I have on hand:

Y’all should know by now that I am a Hang on Back kinda boy and that’s what we have going here lol.

(She’s going through a little algae bloom as I’ve been feeding extra pellets for the insane amount of copepods in there)
