My 2FT Nano Reef

[JayM]

Started a new tank .. after I relocated to Durban. The tank is on day 5 of the cycle.

New sand and rock.
Kept my bio media from my tank that I shut down, so hoping for a fast cycle.
Biomedia was kept with existing tank water with a heater and return.
My fish and coral are being kept by my LFS in Johannesburg, it will be sent down once the tank is cycled.

Off to a great start bud. Always exciting starting a new tank

Good luck with the new tank. Is that a Kessil light?

Thanks, I bought the tank 2nd hand so had no choice on the background. I was a bit sceptical on it but I like it now. Might frow a wall of GSP on the back if i change my mind.

Tank update
Added clean up clew -- Trochus and narcissus snails.
My coral and fish were sent down from Johannesburg. All doing very well. Thank you @ScubaLover22 for all the help. Really appreciate it.

Setup my Reef-pi currently just monitoring temperature and evaporation.
Added 5 x HS100 TP link wireless plugs. Works really well with the reef-pi. will look at adding dosers and ph monitoring in the future.
Added the second Kessil to the tank and changed the light schedule.

[JayM]

Great collection you should add some orange recordias. They will really pop under that lighting
