What size tank is that, and whats in the breeder net? Looks like you're off to a good start.

Looks good.. nice to see someone taking it slow instead a 2.5 month old tank packed with 15 fish (tangs in a nano) and 50 sps frags lol.

Its a 56 gallon column. The breeder was for a flame angel i brought home on friday to see if he would nip at a hammer i put in there. He didnt so i released him so lets hope he stays on a coral free diet. Im going to post a ton of new shot of the tank and equipment when i get home.

I love absolutely fish, but way to exspensive. I actually got all the coral off other reefers, and the fish and clam came from diff. LFS around jersey.

Ty I made the rockwork into 2 islands, one for softies and one for SPS.
The koralias are both size 3.

Be careful with a softie and an SPS island. The two varieties of coral generally require much different conditions. For instance, softies tend to like the water column a little "dirtier" and lower flow where as SPS like super high flow and perfectly clean water.
I'm not saying it can't be done, just make sure you research whether or not your species are compatible so as to save yourself a lot of wasted $. Very cool looking tank BTW, I would love to see that clam showcased more in the front of the tank.

Looking nice, but the yellow tang will eventually outgrow it. Can we get some more pics.

Its looking nice! Thanks for sharing some more pics.
I agree with the tang out growing the tank. If you want more flow too, you can take the cones off of the Koralias, it will increase the flow of those things like crazy.
Keep of the great work

The center "valley" in rockwork is pretty popular these days. Looks great. :)

Very nice. It's so clean looking. Coraline algae will soon be everywhere.
