Default OscarMeyer's RSM 130D Illumina Powered

start out fresh water, got hooked into salt and have been there ever since, im almost a year into it now with the rsm, many of the things i did buy i bought big because i knew at some point i was going to upgrade. ( that build thread is to come and will be way more detailed then this one )

Just wanted to track the progress of the tank, see how everything turns outs, and with my final plans being to convert the tank back into a strictly AIO and keep it super simple, probably as a gift for my mother, because the rest of the equipment will be going into my 90 gal build

Equipment:
Red Sea Max 130D
Tunze 9002
InTank media Rack
InTank slim skimmer cup
Vortec Mp10wes
NextReef MR1 Reactor
Mj1200
AquaMedic ATO
AquaMedic Dual Doser
Vertex Illumina Sr200 24"
Vertex Vlink

Live Stock:
Ocellaris Clown
Midas Blenny
Yasha Goby
Mandarin Goby

Inverts:
Harlequin Shrimp x2
Cleaner Shrimp
Pistol Shrimp
Porcelain Crab

Coral:
Pink Millipora
Blue Roscoe's
Red Planet
Pearlberry
Pink Lemonade
Garf Bonsai
Green Tabler Acro
3 unknown pieces
Assorted zoas
Torch and Hammer Coral
Ricordea
Water Melon Chalice
Green Acans
Crocea Clam

Well enough jabber pictures are better..... So heres a basic Timeline of the tank, ive taken a really slow approach to everything, but thats what this hobby is about. if i have dates with the pictures will post them.

Your macros are really interesting! What did you do to get your algae under control?

Thanks!

I just Added the cuc, and any algae that i was able to pull off with my fingers I did, and if any piece of rock was easily removable i took it out and scrubbed the algae off, after doing that the cuc took over and it was under control within the month.
