Having been out of hobby for a couple of years i'm finally back with a Red Sea Max 130D and external Eheim filter and Vecton UV unit.

I rescued the tank from ebay and it was a mess with hair algae and very dirty conditions.

Sadly one of the clowns didn't survive the move but all else incl boxer shrimp did and all happy now just tested tank tonight and all parameters good and phophates down to from originally .64 to a better .08

Pictures below show it as bought, during and upto date

    That looks vastly improved. That's what happens when you put livestock in the hands of a dedicated reef addict.

    Thanks Marc it annoys me when people jump into this hobby minus any knowledge, tank was neglected and the guy even had a boxer and cleaner shrimp in same tank sadly cleaner became a midnight snack for boxer, will always research and research again before i buy a a fish or invert. Love the Copperband Butterfly and Box Fish but won't have either because of having corals now.

    Tank getting there slowly and a couple more corals and i will have my ideal reef I hope.

    Looking forward to updates on your new project and going throughout the reef addicts podcasts again
