It was meant to be fowlr but added the following corals:
2 x Experimental SPS frags
Pom Pom Xenia
Xenia Elongata

Various mushrooms including Rhodactis/Yuma
Green Torch coral
1 small red enchopyhila frag (freebie)
I do a 25% water change every 2 weeks and also replace the carbon/phos remover/floss.
I do general maintenance at the start of every month which involves cleaning powerheads/spray bars/heater etc. Skimmer cup is cleaned as often as possible.
I feed the tank a variety of food:
Ocean nutrition Brine shrimp flake/spirulina/reef plus all mixed together in one tub
New era pellet
Cyclopeze
Gamma nutriplus complete feed
Frozen chopped mussel/krill/mysis/octopus/artemia
Phyto plankton
Water changes keep my params in check but if needs be I use seachem reef advantage magnesium and calcium and reef buffer to adjust.
I test the tank the day before water change, I then test the change water (i usually add mag/cal to that to keep the display tank right). I then test the display tank 24 hours after water changes. All results are recorded on a spread sheet.
