Got 6 / 7 fish in one picture!

Man, that 24k acanthos is an amazing standout coral among standout corals! The anthias really bring it all together, too.

There basically is none

Overflow —>
chamber 1 in sump - heater —>

Chamber 2 in sump is normally refugium chamber. I have 3” live sand, scrubber, rest filled with live rock. This is my cryptic filtration section - it’s dark, and houses pods, sponge, dead coral skeleton, dusters, bristle worms, possibly a gorilla crab —>

—> media shelves between 2 and 3 - 2 bags chemipure, 1 bag matrix, couple bio blocks —>

Chamber 3 - return pump and live rock —> back to display

Schedule…algae scrubber lighting is on a timer, 18 hours a day.
My only maintenance is Once every 7-10 days I take our a handful of algae and throw it out. Once every 3-4 days I clean the display glass. Once a week I add 2g fw with all for reef.

Every 3-4 months I replace the chemipure, I buy them in 6 packs

Thank you! It will stand out more soon…tomorrow…hahaha

Let’s just say I cleared out some space next to it for some new arrivals that will contrast nicely and make it stand out more
