I totally agree. I have been away from this forum for a while. I really enjoyed this shallow reef build. Such an awesome looking tank. Please update this thing. I know you had a bad ich problem and what appears to by cyano outbreak. Hope it got cleared up.

Hello to all :) mom pass by my facebook and told me to pass by and update it! I promise her and told her I will and get back on swf :) Here is what happened so far:
Fell inlove with my beautiful gf Vanesa, made 11 months on 1/1/2012 close to the year!
Turned 19!
Getting my associates in biology :) its nothing but getting to Masters in like 5 years! :)
Went to disney like 7 times!
Now my tank:
One of the main reason I stop updating my tank was I lost everything! like EVERYTHING!
I lost all corals, all fish, and all inverts. After that Happened I gave up! And you wanna know why I lost everything?!?! MR. Carlos over here drop the light from 24 inches to 10 inches in 1 day and BAM! killed my corals causing my fish to die!
Now the only one to survive was the PURPLE TANG! :') man he's a fighter!
I then left my job with the coral farmer to work with a wholesaler :) GREAT CHOICE! Im able to get first pick on all crazy color coral and fish! That was in Oct. Since that day I've been bringing corals and fish home to my tank! Bringing it up little by little :) Sadly no more sps. Became to much time consuming checking the water constantly etc...I do have like 5 in there but im not gonna add more until i know those are doing great!
For fish this is what i have :)
1x purple tang
2x lyretail anthias
2x bartletts anthias
2x black and white clowns
1x platinum clownfish
1x chromis
1x flame angel
1x potters angel
corals got:
1x maricultured Frogspawn
1x " Hammer
1x red chalice
1x toadstool
1x green leather
1x Large Colony of zoas
7x zoa frags
1x neon green candy canes
1x clove polyps
5x sps frags
1x acan frag

Looks like the tank is coming back nicely though. Vanessa is a FOX!! Lucky boy are you, keep her happy!
 
That sucks you lost everything. It looks good now nonetheless.
I assume you mean the light ddropped to 10 inches heated the water way too much thus killing everything?
