Nuggs' IM NUVO Fusion 20 Build

[Nuggs]

So its been about 3 weeks since I started noticing my zoas closing up. Since I stopped dosing Nopox my nutrients still haven't registered on the test kit but my Zoas have almost fully recovered.

The new UPS is installed I gotta APC back-ups pro 1000. I finished configuring the apex for power loss and in testing it looks like I get approximately 6 hours runtime.

Couple of shots from last night. Layout is still a work in progress, with new frags continuing to come in.

Tank is looking great. What type/size of sand did you use for your substrate?

[Nuggs]

CaribSea SeaFlor Special Grade

I've used 5-6 different types in the last few years and this is what I settled on.

Grain size is 1-2mm. So its small enough that it looks more like sand than crushed coral. I really like the sand look, but like a larger grain size so that it doesn't sandstorm everywhere.

This is the only stuff I'll ever use again.

Awesome thanks. Im upgrading my 30g to a 5.5' peninsula tank and have been trying to find a "fine sand" that wont blow around!

I always used to feed my anemone in my larger tanks but I had stopped on this nano for fear of impacting water quality.

The other day I felt a little bad for it so I decided to feed it yesterday (a nice mix of LRS Fish Frenzy and some chopped clam).

I woke up this morning to the BTA taking a stroll over my zoa garden, Within about an hour he'd settled into a spot. Funny enough the spot I wanted him in when I setup the tank.

Then I realized the reason he'd moved is that it had split.

At least it'll keep the Porcelain Crabs happy.

Nice! I feed mine Fauna Marin's LPS Grow and Colour pellets, keeps the bubble tips nice and bright.
