The tank has a few fish and a few corals in it now and they are all doing quite well. It is nice to see some movement in there after being empty for so long. There are nine blue/green Chromis, a pair of Wyoming Whites and a rather large Naso Tang. The White pair had been in the little QT for over a month maybe six weeks and they were beginning to fight so they were actually the first ones in. I still have my Blue Jaw Male Trigger in my mother-in-law's 125 reef that I need to catch and bring home but I am going to wait for another few weeks and let the system settle into what is there already.

I have an Anthocercis Acropora, ORA Hawkins Blue Echinata, ORA Indo Purple Tip Staghorn, Montipora Spumosa and some Red Grape Macroalgae. Although the Naso is eliminating the Red Grape as fast as he can. There is a frag of various colored Zoas and a Toadstool that seems to be getting bigger by the day.

The cycle continues but things are looking up. The dusting of brown diatoms has started on the rock and sand, a good sign I think. I am chomping at the bits start adding fish and corals. Hurry up cycle.

The entire system is up and running. The controller is running, the fuge lights are installed, the LEDs are over the tank, closed loop works, the Sea-Swirls are turning and the MP40w ES are doing their thing. Glad to see it finally off and running. Now the hard part starts, waiting for the cycle to complete.
