The 20 gallon nano just hit 3 months old and is going strong.This tank was started with the help of my two other mature systems so it had a good biological start. Tanks been super stable with a two part plus bio mag dosing system.
😂 After countless water tests and enough beneficial bacteria to start a small civilization, our tank has officially graduated from “giant glass box of water” to fully cycled aquarium! 🎓🐟
90 days in and everything is settling extremely well. She’s starting to look like a small reef. Now, just have to let it all grow in over the next couple of years and it’ll be a living room show piece
So the reef is now at day 71 since water was added. The local corals going nuts and other inhabitants feeding and behaving as they should albeit I wish they would stop enjoying the back of the tank - but hey, the Clowns and Banggai love feeding time.
