New Nano Tank Log

Quick pic update on the tank. Shots from iPhone so pic quality no as great as it could be. Tank log is providing to be tougher than expected as edit only allowed within 15 mins of posting.

Fishes- ended up adding a pair of Lightning Maroon Clowns and what turns out to be an evil 6 line wrasse.

Blasto had an unfortunate overnight encounter with the Acan garden (suspect that snails knocked it from its spot). Turns out the Acan was the winner and the Blasto lost half of its polyp. Thought it was a goner but 3 weeks later it also almost regenerated from bare skeleton. Amazing.

Ended up with 2 areas for the Zoa garden and 2 areas for the SPS. Bare bottom works great for the Acan garden. Coralline algae showed up 3 weeks of start date. Going old school using Kalk top off evaporation. KH was initially a bit high in the 10-11 range before dropping and holding at 8-9KH was the tank started filling up with livestock.
