Finally starting a thread to share my tank and begin documenting its journey. One day I would LOVE to expand to a larger sized tank, as I feel this one is too loaded on rock and space, but it will hold me over for now.

29g 30”x12”x18¾”
Stand crafted by one of my Uncle's in Austin, and stained by me

Lighting
RAPID LED DIY 12x 3w Royal Blue Cree and 12x Cool White Cree Solderless LED ramped at around 70-80%
2x Moonlight LED
20”x6” heatsink w 2x 80mm fans and 1x 100mm fan, 2x ELN-60-48D dimmable drivers,
1x Digital Coralife Timer
10 hour lighting cycle, and I currently do not use the moonlights cause they’re too darn bright. Refugium light alternates on/off with main lights.

Equipment
South Sea Aquatics CS 3.5 skimmer
CPR HOB Overflow with Aqua-Lifter w/ filter sock
Koralia 3 Powerhead
Fluval e100 Heater/Thermometer
JBJ ATO w/ 13G resovoir
20g sump with refeguim(Ecosmart 120w equivalent CFL; caulerpa, chaeto & dragons breath), return, skimmer zones

Fish:
Lily the Clownfish - purchased this with my girlfriend, and the name comes from Calla Lilies, flowers I always get for my girlfriend. :wub:
Freyja the Scooter Blenny - The name mostly contains the first initial of a handful of friends that I consider closest to me or like family.
