@NancyFish !! Rocky Mountain fish filter company! I saw their filters at reefapalooza and thought they were very intriguing.
Low maintenance - Socks, fleece, something else?

I feel my corals got plumper and brighter but it happened over time so I can’t fully credit skimmer removal. Definitely nothing bad happened
And thank you! I just took pics now. Evening lighting is my favorite time to enjoy the tank
Basically zero maintenance on this tank over the last 2 years it’s all self sustaining filtration and parameters

Definitely inspiration we’ll be walking into reefapalooza with lol.. as they grow do you have to cut back.. do they compete with one another as they grow for space?Pick two contrasting color babies and start with that and you can have something amazing in 6 - 8 months
Even just two can be stunning!
Then I recently added two more

They don’t compete and I haven’t trimmed back at all. If you look at the shelf in early pics there are frag holes all over it. I left a space empty to allow for growth. If needed I can trim branches off down the line or move to a different hole.
In 1 year the knicks went from 1 head to 4, and the grail went from 1 to 6

NiceI put in one of these fleece rollers. It has significantly reduced the build up in the protein skimmer, in fact I could actually go up to a month now between cleaning of the skimmer. Previously the skimmer would be full at the two week point.

I don't think it was from removing the skimmer, but from the pod larva that was no longer being removed from the system. The coral now had access to live food on a regular basis. The first week when I moved my coral to the system pictured in my other post all my coral lost a significant amout of color. I was thinking what have I done. Since that time the color is returning. They look good but are still dull compared to how they looked in my 710 with a similar system. In that same time the pod population took off. It could be coincidence, but I'm thinking it could be connected. This is my refugium.

Nice, where's the rock from?Mesh socks are what I use.
All live rock. Only uglies will be on the glass until the coralline takes over.
A diverse cleanup crew will keep the rocks clean.
