Hi everyone.

I'm back after slightly more than a year of hiatus due to my national service. I am still serving but things have slowed down quite alot and i am now able to restart again.

Some of you may remember my old 3.5 x 3.5 x 2ft tank. The new tank has the same dimensions sans the width, which is reduced by 1ft.

Dimensions : 3.5 x 2.5 x 2ft rimless, 3 side crystal glass.

My previous set up is a mixed reef (SPS + LPS + Softies), with a mix of butterflyfish. I've always been captivated by butterflies and in my old tank, I pushed the boundaries by mixing species that range the gamut from being "reef-safe" to "moderately safe". my new tank will continue where i left off, and also feature corals with butterflies and angels. I'm posting a picture of my old set up as a reminder of my previous set up.

It's gonna be another great tank, if history is anything to go by.

Lemmon, no more extension of the sump design as in your previous one ?

Thanks everyone! I will try not to disappoint!

Hi cedric!

The external sump was very convenient but took up too much space. My apartment is too small for that so I decided with a smaller and more conventional set upthis time
