My first reef tank ever.
The tank is about 1 year old, 50 Gallon Acrylic With built in rear sum-refuge, 50 Lbs Live rock (wasn’t live when it was given to me), Aqua clear power head, two 96w PC bulbs (total about 200w), and one bulb is 50/50 actinic 10k daylight. The other bulb is 50/50 420nm actinic and 460nm, Quiet one Return pump 1200 "I think", Red Sea Berlin Tipple Pass Skimmer rated for 250gallon tank so I figured it would be perfect for a 50 gallon. One case of live aragonite for sand bed (About 50 lbs). Some titanium heater with and external dial " Don’t recall the brand, and as for live stock goes, One Black Clown (to keep nitrates down for now), Yellow polyps, Blue xenia, Mystery combo rock hopefully some one can ID the green coral and the two Bat wing looking things bellow it. Some other polyps with Orange trim, One Sea Star, Three hermit crabs (for now), One emerald crab (one handed), and that’s all I can think of for right now. Thanks for taking the time to check out my tank I am only 24 years old, and this is the first reef tank I have ever started so I am open for suggestions. Thank you
