Thx Josh.

No secret really and while my relatively small collection is for the most part growing, most of the pieces are not yet very coloured up at this point. I find it always takes me a long time to get sps settled and i've never had many pieces reach the potential that other reefers reach.

As for my system it is quite basic.

- Mitras (~13k, 71% power) light ramps up / down for 2 hours. Full intensity for 6 hrs.
- DD H2Ocean with weekly 10 - 15 gallon changes
- reactor with gfo
- 2 filter socks with a bit of carbon in them. cleaned out weekly
- filter foam on top of socks which i rinse off a few times per week
- skimmer cup emptied once a week
- food added is NLS pellets, Pacifica Plankton and Acan Plus

Back wall of the tank was of course all dead rock. It leached a lot of nutrients but I think it's pretty settled now. Rest of the rock was live.

I turkey baste the tank thoroughly at least once per week. The coral looks very happy when I do this!
