I went Barebottom mostly just to experiment with it in my 3rd reef and also because I know I will have to move this tank a few times during its lifespan & its easier to keep clean.

I believe the algae is Galaxaura Sp - Pom Pom Algae. I removed a fist sized chuck a few weeks back but left some to regrow.

So far so good he grazes constantly and is such a nice fish. Always wanted a potter's and hes a good centerpiece for this little tank. I'm debating now if I have room for a blenny or if I am better off with just him and the clowns.

How do you like the Icecap K1 protein skimmer? I'm planning a lagoon but am hoping for quite a few fish and am wondering whether the skimmer can help with the heavy load. I'm thinking small angel and 1-2 clowns like you, and adding a small flasher wrasse and a goby.
The aquamaxx hob 1.5 seems like a beast and everyone seems happy with it, but it sticks out much more from the tank. What are your thoughts and experiences? |

I'm planning one very similar to yours (IM 25), but will likely go no skimmer. Where does the Purigen sit? Is it in a filter bag? I saw a mention of a media insert, but I need to look into that a bit more.

Hey bro. Following along. I'm looking at an IM 50EXT.
How do you like the IM build quality? Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Very nice. My previous tank was basically the same as what I'm interested in currently. So I still have the same item list I made up years ago. I've been updating it with an eye on Black Friday lol

I've been gone for awhile... is that a coral beauty? How does it do with the corals?

It's a Potter's Angel and I haven't had any issues with him nipping
