Default setting up of 3 x 2 x 2 marine tank

Hi guys.Recently upgrade my tank to a 3x2x2.Here by sharing my scaping but without much corals yet.
tank size 3x2x2
chiller hailea hc300a
return pump - waveline 5000l/h dc pump
skimmer - reef Live
lightings - maxspect razor 160w
wave maker - wp40

first stage of scaping.Sorry nv clear off the dead coraline algae as lazy.


2nd stage of scaping.diatoms starting to grow and infest but normal.


3rd stage.structure is forming for the scaping but diatoms erm you guys can see yourself lol.


4th stage.bought more rocks and finalising the structure.


last stage.Bought afew more rocks to break up the wave as the wp40 is too strong and is blowing my sand up.Added some frags from my old tank to test water .


hope you guys like the scaping.Do stay tune for the placing of corals and fishes soon to be added.Plz do give your comments

Scaping looks good for sps! And great choice on the light! I would suggest u get a universal adapter to run ur wp40 at a lower voltage or get a wp25 instead.

Nice rockscape except for the hugh ball of "spikes" on the right side seems a little distracting.

Very nice! 3x2x2 is a good size to start the hobby, mine is also the same size and very similar specs to yours! Only differences are the wavemaker, skimmer and return pump.

Take it slow and easy and enjoy the set up....don't rush into adding many things at once as that usually causes problems.
