I've also got a fish wish list. I've had big fish in the past, so this time I'm going to try and keep things small as I want to try and focus on sps this time.

6 line wrasse
Scooter
Mandarin (maybe a pair)
Clown goby
Neon goby
Royal gramma
Red spot blennie
Blood shrimp
Sexy shrimp (4 or 5)
Blue tuxedo urchin

I'd also like a group of schooling fish. All I can really find that will stay small are thread fun cardinal, so maybe 5 or 6 of these aswell.

Just got to tidy up the sump a bit, re-route some wires, and get a top off tank made up

6line wrasses are sometimes nasty and if you dont like him its near impossible to get him out of a reef. a yellow coris wrasse eats lot of
pesty things and leaves corals alone, way nicer fish

Sump space tidied up a little bit:



Just need CO2 and osmolator to add. Also going to modify the end pipes to 1" flex. This will give me a bit more room around the skimmer.
Also found a 15 litre recycling tub. Perfect fit, just need to water test that.

Here's the RO unit assembled. I changed the pre filter canisters for clear ones that I had off a spare unit. I think it's more aesthetically pleasing.....



Should have it plumbed in by the weekend.

Just placed an order for the last few pieces. Hopefully get it all finished this weekend. Maybe even wet test one last time. Maybe try and load it up with dry rock, and seed it with a bit of live in the sump. Then let the cycle commence....
