Well, congratulations on your new home! May the corals thrive and the fish bring joy!
The overall plan turned out well. This is important, as everyone has corals, but design is not always present. Why is it good? - I didn't quite understand the left (far) slope - maybe the top stone could be used as the bottom? (see photo)
The space for coral growth and room for the fish is great, well thought out.

Max is doing great, keep it up. Oh, but what else is to come? The volumes are all ahead.
Brooke3987
Judging by the dynamics of his "transfers," the next one should be a ton.
Destiny
Max, a year ago, I spoke boldly about the beginning. I will repeat myself again. For now, it's enough; the children are growing, the aquarium is too, everything is ahead of you. The main thing is that you are on the right path, on the rise.
Maria6659
Offtopic Here it is, the opinion of serious sailors... It sounds like a song...
Melinda2740
There will be a ton.
Phyllis
Oh! This is so our style!!!
Jason5071
9 days after the launch... The stones began to be covered with brown. One acropora flew around the montiporas, seriatoporas, and the other SPS and LPS are feeling good.
Charles4157
Don't worry, it will pass.
Eric8832
Exactly. The system is in the process... the fluctuations will settle when it stabilizes.
Jeremy
Max, do you remember where else you can see beauty?
Jeffery
Ah... Beauty...
I wonder how long it takes for montiporas to grow so beautifully...? In my old tank, they only grew 1-2 cm in 3 months.
Now I need to take a breather after the setup for a month or two, and then I'll create some beauty too.

It is clear that the person works with the sea. Everything is well-maintained. With care. If the pump doesn't want to start in terms of airflow in the PC, try to help it with a small compressor. Put the regulator on the tube beforehand. Then you will see how everything works. You made a wise decision regarding the UV. Once, Muk was going on about how UV is unnecessary in an aquarium. Well, practice has shown what is what.
Shane
Max, congratulations! I'm looking forward to new photos!

Off-topic. Horrible, and this is in the capital! It's just some kind of idiocy... We also have issues with electricity supply sometimes, but to get to this point, I don't even remember it happening in our village.
Amy
Who knows, who knows...
Chelsea567
What to do? I need to earn money somehow.
I'm not exactly in the capital - I'm 20 km away from it.
James8887
it's not that far, in general.
Eric5208
Tolik, I had to install a stabilizer for the household - the MH lamps wouldn't start, the voltage was 180 Volts...
Maria
Off-topic. Old friend, I'm aware. It's just that my village is closer to the center than yours...
Joshua448
Yarik! Off-topic. We saw this, you showed it to us yourself, remember, we even did a hidden recording of the whole device.
Vincent
Damn...
It was a nice fish - a cleaner wrasse.
It just jumped out of the tank... By the time I arrived, it could have been enjoyed with a beer.
But really, it's not funny. In my previous aquarium, I always took it out from the back compartment (or the sump). Here, it didn't seem to have suicidal tendencies...
I really liked that fish! Always in sight, always paired with some other fish... What a shame.
Amanda
Don't mourn for the cleaner wrasse. Their lifespan in an aquarium is still short. He just got ahead of the events a little. Deciding that suicide was the most suitable option... It's better than watching him wither away before your eyes, with no way to help...
James4757
Why? Vadim has a cleaner wrasse living with him for quite a long time. What is their life cycle?
Daniel
Max, so Vadim is lucky. A good cleaner wrasse was caught, but often Labroides dimidiatus lives from 1 month to half a year. First, many of them come in poisoned with cyanide, and second, the transition to an unnatural diet for this fish. In nature, the wrasse is a cleaner and parasite-eater... No matter how many I bought, they never survived more than 3-4 months. That's why I gave up on acquiring this fish further. It gets thin, shrivels up... and... bless you, Petrov...
Sarah5423
Max, what is the power and model of the UV?
Mike
Hi.
Would you like to put a trim on the aquarium made of acrylic or PVC and cover it with self-adhesive material to match the color of the stand, with a height of 6-7-8 cm? Similar to what they have at Jewel, so the light won't shine into the room, and there will be fewer "navigators" for beer.
P.S. I read that those with open aquariums have plenty of "navigators."
Rodney
Sanya, you read my mind - today I took the measurements, tomorrow I'll draw everything in the program and on Monday I'll place the order. Just not in the color of the cabinet, but in black acrylic, which will be 3 cm below the water level and 15 cm in height.
Mine lived for about 2 months. The belly was always almost like that of a fat tangerine.
Vadim's has definitely been living for about 2 years!
Kostya, only 6 watts. The crypt might not finish it off, but it definitely stopped the bacterial bloom. I'm 100% sure of that.
Melinda2740
I confirm, it will be about 3 years soon.
Brandi
I'm also waiting for that, although for now no one wants to fly, maybe there aren't any yet. And what's the program for? There are four stripes and about six clips or some kind of fasteners (or to glue in the ribs).
Jessica8898
The company I will be ordering from asked for it in electronic form.
Kenneth7331

Wendy
Beauty!
Have you tried sharing?
I wonder, does it close at night? Will the clowns get in?
Julie3950
The clowns will finish her off. Half-closed at night. I won't share.
Jessica6754
It's better not to touch catalaphilia, especially with someone who has just arrived. I haven't encountered clowns getting into it, although anything can happen at sea... My ones don't even think about it...
Ross
What, another act? By the way, who is that hitting the SV in your aquarium? Euphilius grow better in alcohol (or is it not them? Some leg looks long) - that's it, I found a photo of your "alcoholics" in your flea market.
Ricky9405
Sanya, this is catalepsy. In the SW, they are cutting candy caulastrea, I can't bring myself to cut such beauty.
Nicole7122
God forbid going for something like that... Alica has a colossal and stunningly beautiful catalepsy. I also thought about fragmenting it. But how can you fragment such beauty, especially without a hundred percent guarantee that everything will go smoothly and quietly...
Earl
Then let's break it.
Amber
The wrasse lived for about 2 months. It ate bloodworms like there was no tomorrow. To my shame, I only noticed its "disappearance" after about 2 weeks, but I was able to explain the cyanosis (which is already passing).
Eric
Seriatopora with blastomussa - ready for takeoff. That's good! Decide with T5s, there will be a "poison" color.
Stephanie4990
Beautiful colors will disappear from the bezpov. cyan...
Devon107
The problem with cyanobacteria is due to dry reef rock and overfeeding. But that's my own fault. Of course, it's better to do a full setup with live rock. I knew this during the setup, but there were nuances.
Stacy6866
I wouldn't be so categorical about dry reef rock - as for the cyano from it, you know my ratios of live rock to dry reef rock, and this stuff hasn't been around and isn't here yet, but there’s plenty of other things. By the way, it's not that scary when there's more dry reef rock than live rock.
Jennifer7578
Overfeeding is heavy pressure for the reef. If possible, it's better not to overdo it, relying on the equipment...
Ronald5720
Why not be a conchologist? Dry reef rock does not perform the functions that live rock does. Maybe someday... If it weren't for the interference, I would have had 35 kg of live rock, but instead, I have 20 kg of live rock and 15 kg of dry reef rock.
Karen2578
Wow, this is so beautiful!!! It's really very pretty! In the second photo, what is the "green thing" called? And what is its market value (on average)?
Diana3118
Ricordea yuma comes in different colors. The price is $50-$90 per mouth (depending on color, size, and supplier).
Marie5348
Yuma was given to me by Vadim. In a year, I grew 8 pieces.
Christopher4108
Max, beautiful!
Share your experience, what do you feed the Dendrophilia and Goniopora?
(UPD) And how often?
Andrea6761
Oleg, I feed the tubastreya once a week on purpose. Otherwise, it eats whatever it catches. It eats dry food, shrimp, squid, etc. - all roughly speaking. I feed the goniopora with artemia nauplii and cyclops - it eats. I feed it 1-2 times a week.
Noah1632
Max, how long does your gonipora live?
Katie3017
Very little... Just under 2 weeks. So it's hard to say her fate for now.
Kathleen
Awesome aquarium, such colors, super!!!
Nancy
Max, did you put the old lamp in the attic, or is it lying around unused? I would buy it.
Laura4892
I lent it to a friend to try out... Off-topic: We're buying a spotlight for 50-100, plus a lighter, a starter (150-200), a light bulb, and that's it. A frag grenade for T5.
