Hello fellow reefers!

My name is Andrew I live in mims fl. I’ve kept aquariums most of my life. 10 years ago or so I had started building a 75 rimless with all the latest and greatest. I ended up back burner the project until about 2 months ago.
Friend had a cube 20 he wasn’t using and we made a deal.
I used the Marco dry rock I’ve had sitting along with some other things like the auto top off reservoir and tunze.

Wb cube 20
Ecotech Mp 10

Sicce scuba heater
Home made stand
Marco dry rock
Caribsea Fiji pink

1/14/24 Started my cycle with a shrimp and Microbacter 7.
Daily dosing of 5ml
1/31/24 ph 7.8 ammonia 0 nitrite 0 nitrate 20

Look for the thread called 'Minimalist Reefer'. Mostly smallish tanks without crazy high end equipment.

I have a 40g aio tank that has sps &lps corals, anemones and CUC... no fish. The only thing I run is a filter sock.

A little update
We picked up a pair of onyx Picasso clown fish and a royal gamma yesterday from living reef. They are all eating and seem happy!
