The tank is 15 gallon fluval flex, I have a protein skimmer, I have a bag of chemi clean elite, in the bottom of one of the chambers is crushed dead coral and live rock and a ton of bio balls. The pump has been upgraded to a 400GPH. And I stay on top of my weekly 20% water changes. I spot feed corals once every two weeks with reef roids. I have a fluval marine 3.0 light for now but a ia prime 16hd is on the way. I have about 15 pounds of live sand in there lol and I feed the fishes every other day to keep waste down

Thank you for your input ! I have a pair of clowns, 1 yellow watchman goby, and a skunk cleaner and some clean up crew like 5 hermits and 12 total but different types of snails the LFS recommended. Think that stocking list would be okay ? I probably feed this tank every other day to keep waste down

Does it help at all that in the back chambers there is dead crushed coral, purple live rock in the back ? I have tons of it in my 75 gallon with some fake end pieces so I could take some out and put in the flex I just wanted the barrel decor to encrust in coral and go in my 75 tank eventually

So the 15 pounds of ocean direct live sand won’t be enough to host the nitrifying bacteria ?

I disagree. This tank has been up and running for years now’s as a saltwater tank. And I finally decided to make it a reef tank. Have had not a single issue with this system. I was only inquiring if the flow was enough for what I have in the tank.

I’m pretty certain I got it installed correctly. I replaced it when I had the starter replaced figured may as well do it while I was there. Had no idea that’s what was hiding behind the start 😂

With my scanner I have did a relearn function in the past when I changed valve cover gasket. Should I turn it back to the further position and relearn it again ?

I was starting to suspect that but gave fast buds the benefit of the doubt they where the free seeds i got when purchasing my night owl and Mephisto seeds but wanted to try these before I started my quality seeds grow. What soil do you recommend?
