Looking nice!

Awesome set up, the small cabinet on the side is a cool idea. What brand and size of UV sterilizer did you go with?

Thank you! The uv steriliser is an aqua ultraviolet 25 watt which I primarily want to use for parasite sterilisation.

Scape looks very nice. I’m a fan of the different rock structures rather than when people pile them up or scatter it across the bottom

Thanks! The idea was that it would allow for the use of Tonga branch rock in order to crate more habitat and better display corals while still letting flow pass through the scape with the gyres.

Not sure if anyone’s answered already regarding mixing dwarf angels but from what I have heard it can be done with dwarf species like cherub and coral beauty. I had a cherub in my 75 who I needed to emote due to his hatred for colorful fish. Never touched a coral though and picked on the rocks too. I would recommend getting one but adding it to the tank after everything else is in

I am going to get a flame angelfish but am interested in some other dwarf angels - especially a potters since the final verdict on the ban in Hawaii is coming soon-ish.
