Hi all,

I'm setting up a 16g nuvo sps tank. I currently have some frags in my frag tank.

My equipment is
-nuvo skim gadget
-90w Cree fixture(dimmable)
-a mix of 7k whites and 10k
-royal blues
-cyan, red, violet
- three channeled
- phosban reactor
- 2 Koralia 425 nanos
- smart wave controller
- Hydor water deflectors over the return pumps.

A total of 1075gph so a turn over rate of 67x

10lbs of premium Fiji live rock extremely porous.

20lbs of live sand

Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I would love to be able to have beautiful sps in this tank soon!

Thanks in advance
Matt

I'll be setting it up in the next few weeks. I have all the equipment set up. Just trying to decide on how to do my rock. I also started a pico that I will make a thread on.. Haha. Multiple tank syndrome..

Thanks bud! The rock gives me that big tank feel.. Which means I can stock this bad boy to the brim!

Very cool! That type of rock is perfect for sticking and wedging frags in place.

Yeah! Definitely. The middle rock I put in upside down. So it would go from big to small up top. Hopefully ill be getting my DA Reef Keeper in the next couple of weeks.
