Well starting something new, but similar to have I have done in the past. This tank is my UNS 30a. It will be an (as close to possible) representation of the Florida Keys stuck inside a 7-gallon cube tank.
I plan to put a single fish species (potentially a colony of them)
Equipment:
Tank- UNS 30a
Heater- Finnnex HMA-50s on Inkbird ITC308S set at 78f
Return Pump- Sicce MicraPlus
Powerhead- Hygger 1600 GPH (though this may change, depending on livestock and programming)
Filtration- Bag of Marine Pure Gems (small bio balls basically) That's it. No other filtration. I've done it before and the entire tank basically is going to act as filtration with all the macroalgae. I do plan on doing 10% water changes every week as well
Lighting- ONF Flat Nano+ set at 45% right now
Dosing:
ChaetoGro
Ferrion Iron
SpongExcel
CoralAmino
Phytoplankton
Livestock plans:
Live rock- 10lbs KP Aquatics 'starter' rock
Live Sand - Caribsea Ocean Direct
Corals- Gorgonians (I hope)
MacroAlgae-Maybe some Caulerpa and Botryocladia
Fish- Possibly a group of Roughhead blennies (Acanthemblemaria aspera)
Inverts- Thinking some Porcelain Crabs, Sexy Shrimp, Mime crabs
