Akma Elos mini

[akma]

I already have a thread on my elos midi, but figured i'd start one with my elos mini as well.

Bought this for my snowflake pair pretty much. Seemed they needed more space from the nanocube they were in.
Since I keep all my corals in my midi, this one is going to be more wavy stuff.
So far I have an rbta, mini-maxi. Probably going to frag my hammer and move that over.

Equipment:
- Elos mini setup
- Ai sol blue with custom bracket
- jbj ATO
- elos skimmer
- mp10es

Current livestock:
- Pair of snowflakes
- chromi
- swales basslet

Changes the scape a little bit:

My clowns hosting:
They've been cleaning the area for awhile now and the females stomach is getting pretty fat. Hopefully in the next few months they'll start laying.

The rbta found it's home on the left side of the tank, which is perfect because I can see them from my bed.

hey akma,
Love the tank so far.
I have the same lights and i'm wondering what you have your settings at?

[akma]

Hey Darth,
thanks. I don't really have too many stocking plans for this tank. Maybe some softies and just anenomes. Most of my corals are in my elos midi.

I got my ideas from this thread:

I have something similar to hmello's schedule.
I start mine at 10am and end at 10pm
Check out that thread it helps give great ideas.

What are your max settings for the sol blue? I have both the sol and nano right now and am trying to decide on which light to keep. Thanks

I started off around 35percent. Have it about 45 now. I'd go with the ai sol blue.
