Hey everybody, Im backkkk! Still in iowa for school but still keeping reef tanks, Right now i have a 90 gallon goldy tank, 2 gallon pico reef, 5.5 gallon shrimp tank, and NEW 8 GALLON jbj rimless that im exceptionally excited about!

Ive been wanting to buy this exact tank for like 2 years now and got a great deal on this one! Currently its pretty empty aside from a large dead colony of porites and a little chunk of monti that i tossed in there for fun.

The tank is cycling right now as i filled it up yesterday night, the 16 watt wavepoint light is just temporary till i settle on a good light for sps/mixed reef. Heres some pics! Oh btw pretty sure im going bb for the sps on this one,

I have a bunch of really mature ceramic in the back to kickstart the cycle, added some mysis shrimp for ammonia source.

sounds like you've got your hands full with all those tanks. What's going in this one?

This one is going to be a mixed reef, the 5.5 is coming down soon and the pico is going to either be turned into a mini frag tank or taken down. Maybe ill put a nem in it or big frogspawn dunno yet!

Anyways i want this to be SPS dominated with a ton of zoas/palys around the lower level and a few lps here and there. Fish wise not too sure yet
 
Hey thought id throw in an update of the cube, its looking pretty good right now.

Whenever i do waterchanges(weekly) i scrub the back walls algae off and it makes the tank reaalll foggy. The feather along with a few of the other inhabitants gobble that up i, it draws it into its tube and the next day the tube will be like 1/4 inch longer.
