Hey y'all. I've been hanging out on here a lot since I can't go anywhere, and figured I'd post up my two tanks I have running at my house right now. The 25 lagoon has been running for about 4 years, but has suffered two major set backs where I lost a lot of coral. The 20 just got set up a week and a half ago because I got bored and had it in the basement. I would love to set up something bigger this year, but that may not happen since no one is buying jewelry right now, and I'm a self employed jeweler.

The 25 Lagoon has been running consistently at 400 calcium and 7-8 alkalinity. I'm trying to raise both with little success with the recommended dosing of Brightwell's two part. I went ahead and upped the dosage today, so we'll see how it tests after this. Theres a pair of clownfish and a sixline wrasse. I love photographing this tank.

And the 20g's beginning. I put a few frags from the 25g in here and they are all doing well. I started it up with water from a water change on the 25 lagoon, the filter media from the 25 lagoon and I've been dosing Brightwell's MicroBacter every day. Seems to be working well so far. I think I'm going to move my ricordea garden to this tank and add sexy shrimp and a goby/shrimp pair.

I've been loading the 20 gallon up. It's been doing very well, but I need to start dosing more consistently. Magnesium, calcium and kh are all on the low side right now. Picked up a bunch of frags this weekend and last, and moved some euphyllia from my tank back at my parents house. That tank is a hair algae nightmare and the corals are getting smothered. My 17 yr old clownfish doesn't mind though!
