Green Slimer Acro

Looks very natural and elegant. Love the green Acro. I am trying to do the same in 35l. What has been your biggest problem and how have you fixed it?

Tanks looking good! So other than the corals, what liestock have you got in there? Is that a boxing shrimp I see in one of the pics?

That is really nice! If my nano turns out half as good I will be very happy

Whats the technical specs (lighting, dosing, any sump, maintainance routine, etc)?

Thanks everyone for your kind replies. I started this tank after pulling down my 90 gallon. I thought I would share some pics of the 90.

The biggest problem I have is a nuissance algae that keeps growing. It is a red bubble algae as seen here.

I have tried to do frequent water changes to try and curb these from spreading. So far they aren't growing s fast as they have in the past.

The only other livestock I have is a yellow goby, a sixline wrasse, and assorted snails and hermits. The shrimp is a coral banded.

I have the stock lighting that came with the aquapod. A 70w MH w/14k bulb. No sump in this setup. As far as dosing, I only add baking soda when the GH goes down. I do a 50-70% water change (7-8gals) every week. I add a small amount of turbo calciam to my change out water as IO salt is a little light on calcium.

Nice shots man!


Is that a hydronophora or a branching pagoda... or other?


Some manual pruning of algae is just a fact of reefing
