[Chingon]

So i checked my water yesterday and it was alright. So i dropped in a pom pom xenia in there last nite, it started pulsating after a while but not looking good, today in the morning it was still alive, and tonight its alive and pulsating more. i'm happy.

Great pictures! The tank is beautiful
I noticed you have some LR in your sump. I would remove this from there before it turns into a detritus trap and cause your nitrates and phosphates to go up.
Sumps are best left for mechanical filtration and possibly bio as a refugium. You do not want to have rocks in there though because they will not process all the detritus. What happens is detritus ends up clogging the rock up and getting trapped in the crevices.

Lol, things always look good on a different tank, lol specially when its the only coral in there.

I put my first fish in my tank, i didnt see it for a whole day. I got worried that maybe my tank isnt ready for it so i looked for it, and it's alive. that really made me happy.

 

[Chingon]

So i went to buy a choc star fish, for my wife's harlequins.

ended up buying 4 chromis for myself. lol. so now i got 5 fish total in there.

 

[Chingon]

just a quick snap. i think it looks pretty cool to be a simple coral.
no adjustments of any kind.

 

[Chingon]

my other new cool looking fish.

 

[Chingon]

he looks like he surprised himself. lol

Thanks Justin, he's not shy at all. and he likes to sift sand. i really like it. i gotta name him something now. lol

 

[Chingon]

added a new zoa into the tank. very simple but for some reason they look cool to me.

 

[lvsuckerfish]

not a problem he does look good in the tank and will keep the sand nice and white.

 

[Chingon]

So i finally put some of the chalices that my wife was housing for me for a long time. here's a pic of one of my favorites.
