Im pretty new to the site and i finally decided i should post my tank. This is a IM nuvo 10 and it is my first saltwater tank. Its been running since September 2017 and has gone thru one redo or rescape. I did set it up too fast and wasn’t thinking much. I like the scape more but im not 100% happy with it but it’ll do. The tank has gone thru its ups and downs but i think now its stable and showable since starting this year i decided to keepup with the maintenece more and actually do water changes. I was too lazy at the begining and was only doing water changes every so often. But now its a weekly thing. This is my tank as of now.

Livestock.
A darwin clownfish, he was my second fish his partner died randomly not sure why it was a snowflake clown.

Yellow clown goby, i like this little dude a lot but im gonna take him out soon because i recently put a couple sps frags in thinking he was reef safe. But he started nipping at the polyps.

Im not sure what type of goby but i’ve seen them named as barber pole goby. He’s pretty cool to look at and he’s also got his pistol shrimp budy.

Clean up crew is 1 conch, 2 nassarius snails, 1 red leg hermit crab, 1 trochus snail, and a emerald crab, he’s also iffy i’ve seen him pull on my zoa polyps BBA00B70-9AF9-4DC6-8B6C-B8B23BB7AFE3.jpeg7258BA19-7D08-4ECC-BFA9-A9EF51C200E9.jpegDD36E199-6229-4ED2-BA67-B904EF462449.jpeg6B49EA84-CED6-4E12-963C-AC6631BD017C.jpegAB6B4CA0-49E2-4BAD-B180-B8403CFFCA26.jpegF2F2089F-0815-4E3E-BA1A-1FFA6BD874D1.jpeg3A3D1474-D7EA-4B19-81DE-9895F39C80D0.jpegE35198D3-2536-4355-963D-86ED2BD79FFD.jpeg
 
Wow. Not only are you good a keeping a nano saltwater reef aquarium, you're pretty good at getting pictures too! Welcome and keep up the good work! Out of curiosity, have you considered upgrading to a larger tank? I'm on the downsizing side of the hobby myself and I'm always thinking about doing something smaller...

Thank you, actually now i regret buying such a small tank i wish i would’ve gotten a slightly larger one but im ok right now. Maybe one day i’ll upgrade.
 
Welcome! Very nice nano! I am a nano type reefer and love the smaller tanks so much. They are versitile and upkeep is so easy. I love the little cave you have there. Hope to see you at the up and comming meeting! Thanks for sharing all the pictures! Blessings!
 
Not sure what this sps is called cause im kinda just now getting into sps but i’ve had it for a couple months already and it has been doing really good in my tank8202A7D7-C145-4EA3-A20F-5E1532657838.jpeg5DE1F017-03BE-4E38-B977-BDE8E4087AC5.jpeg

So recently i decided to get 3 more pieces, one is a little white right but it does have polyp extensions hopefully it colors back up 85CC976A-68C0-4787-8450-EB7958704299.jpeg276D2138-12C3-4F05-AA85-E07858207B96.jpegDE80A941-4ABA-407D-B797-64F6EB02C88F.jpeg6389F88D-3AEA-4EF4-9A7F-D709C04CD73C.jpeg42E20856-0160-4826-92D5-421FC4A59375.jpeg714394B9-139B-4C28-91F9-411EF389C0B2.jpeg
 
Great looking tank. Did you end up getting rid of the clown goby?

See... I love nanos but I don’t have the self control to overstock it immediately and have to upgrade too quick
I want to just shove coral in it but i know im gonna have that problem so i try not to, i do plan on upgrading this in the future tho
 
Really enjoyed going to the Coral Expo this weekend. It was my first time attending one of these type of events and i really enjoyed it. I liked looking at all the amazing stuff all the vendors decided to bring. Even tho i had to limit my self and not go too crazy. Here are all of the couple frags i decided to buy. But first i really want to thank all the people that made this amazing event happen, and also all the vendors.

I think this is a baby neptune bounce mushroom that im excited to watch grow.5A232853-9FE2-4A7E-BF2C-2C5ECCA7A95D.jpeg

And i forgot what all these were cause im bad at the names some corals have but they’re all sps. The colors aren’t that great cause i don’t have the best light. But that will be the next step getting a better light to bring out the colors in these pieces.7DCBEB5A-6836-4630-8B43-BB68727A3F44.jpegB4E9F08A-5EC3-48A7-8AE6-702B8C7AA5A8.jpegB5589E6B-4E49-4EAA-8966-6EE517FDE996.jpeg05A010CC-7DD8-4D4B-B4CC-2D4365BEEE2E.jpeg
