Not too much to tell..it's a super simple set-up started up in April with all cured rock almost 40lbs from mostly local reefers. No cycle seen (and I tested religiuosly every day!Nerd - ya I know!!) About 15-20lbs argonite sand.
Running some "no name" T5HO lights 4 24Watt bulbs, 2 white, 2 actinic - yes, I go for cheap...but they work well for me and I am happy with them!
I have an Eheim 2213 cannister filter filled with LR rubble and carbon.
Powerheads are a Koralia1, Powerhead 301 and 101 - could use more though.
No skimmer yet, as I ordered it and received it damaged, soon though.
I WC 3.5G every week and have had NO problems! Super happy with my simple set-up!
Testing but No supplements needed yet.

Bit of cyano, but that's my only real frustration thus far-probably flow issue.

I have it stocked with a goby, wrasse, and 2 clowns, pom-pom crab, cleaner shrimp, brittle star, sand-sifter star and tonnes of coral - LPS, bit of SPS, and softies.
