Looking good! ! What is coral dirt?

Haha coral, dirt cheap. I'm looking to start up a coral growout set up with a friend so we are looking into coral buying.

Well I'm having a high nitrate issue right now. I haven't quite nailed down the cause. I may have stirred up a bunch of detritus on my last water change. I've got another 15g of fresh saltwater mixing right now to do another big water change to combat the nitrates.

I also got some progress done on the tank yesterday. I finally got all the electrical stuff mounted under the stand so my tanks area doesn't look like a jumble of cords.

Long time no update. I just got in an order from Bulk Reef Supply. I picked up the dual GFO ans Carbon reactor. Great little setup, very easy to setup, I had it up and running in about 10 minutes. I cant wait to see the results this unit puts out. Also getting in an order of emerald crabs, peppermint shrimp and corals tomorrow. I cant wait to see them in the tank.

Here are some pictures of the new reactor up and running and the new filter sock and diy sock holder.

Well I haven't updated this in quite some time. I spent the last couple days moving my frag growout system from the spare room into the room where my main tank was. I then spent last night re-plumbing the 75g tank into the grow out system. I now only have one setup running instead of 2. Total water volume is right at about 150g. I'm hoping that combining the systems will allow for more stable water parameters and overall easier maintenance. I'll try and snap some new pictures of the whole setup soon.

Here's the new combined setup. The next project is to finish the frag setup stand and canopy to match the main tank.
