Default EvoZ's 34L Nano Reef Tank

Decided to start a new thread since the old one was mainly question asking.

Tank is 1 month old as of yesterday.

Heres the tank spec :

Tank size : 31x31x36cm (34L)
Filtration: 4kg live rock + Dolphin H-800 Hang on filter (1020l/hr)
Skimmer : Dymax IQ skimmer (with Sanders 2 Air wood)
Filtration media : Biohome +, Seachem Purigen and RowaPhos.
Lighting: Beamworks 6x 3W (4white 2 blue) LED (upgrading to 5Blue 2White BridgeLux LED Par38-alike light set soon)
Substrate: Carib-Sea Live sand.
Water: Red Sea Coral Pro Salt + DI water.
Cooling : Dymax Fan
Additives: Planning to dose GoodBye po4.

Corals (started adding corals 1 week ago) :
Star Dust Zoas
Purple Hornet Zoas
Eagle Eye Zoas
Red/Blue/Green Zoas
Green/Orange Ric mushroom

Fishes :
Currently have 2 astraea snail
Planning to have 2 percular clown, sexy shrimps and maybe a bi-color blenny.

Water parameters as of today :
SG : 1.025.
Temp : 26 - 27C
(all tested with API test kit)
Ammonia : 0
Nitrate : 0 - 5ppm
Nitrite : 0
Phosphate : 0 ppm
pH : 8.2 - 8.4

FTS :


Star Dust zoa colony.


My Ric mushroom garden.. bought it from a reefer and it came with a rock but the rock is full of green slime algae and green algae.. cut the mushroom base off and stick to my another rock... hopefully it will grow and spread to cover the whole rock.


Purple Hornet Frag with eagle eye frag..
Eagle eye is not opening well..


Don't know whats the name of this zoa.. got 2 variant.


Another zoa with green and red color


the heart of my tank..
just added a surface skimmer to the filter but its churning out quite alot micro bubble... placed some black sponge at the outlet but ts not working.
all the media and the skimmer mentioned above are all stuffed here.


Tank's placed inside my 4ft freshwater set up cabinet.. tight but nice squeeze.


together with my 4ft tank..



Thanks for viewing!!!

@xersion

Don't think I'll be doing that anytime soon bro.. Just started only hahhahahaa.. But in my mind already playing with the idea if a new 2ft.. Damn....

@bigfoot1989

Those easy corals like Zoas mushroom and some lps will do well. But of course if got chillier. Their color will be even better..

Some updates.. bought a pair of false percular clownfish and a boxer shrimp today. Finally have fishes after more than a month since start up!

Took some pics with my DSLR..








Anyone able to ID this?


Lovely cute clowns!


Started eating hikari marine pellets hours after they have settle in..


bigger one is chasing the smaller one on the right, hopefully they will live in peace..


im guessing im stocking up pretty fast... better hold my temptation to add anything for at last till next week! Right now im doing 5% WC 3 times a week.



Any fishes to recommand? probably a nice cute blenny or goby?
