One month update

Our 90g tank with 55g sump/refugium has been running for just over 4 weeks now and all water parameters are still looking good, even with the 3 cucumbers (they came with the tank), a clean up crew and our newest additions... our first fish... 2 clowns. Meet Trump (Orange - of course - Ocellaris) and Sushi (Black Ocellaris). My kids picked out their names!

They were added 1 week ago today and have been doing great. They have paired nicely and rarely separate in the tank. They are very curious and comfortable (follow us around every time we are near the tank), and they have a favorite spot where they hang out together at night (bottom front left corner). They don't hide at all and seem very happy. All water readings are still at 0 except phosphates moved from 0 to 0.25 prior to a 15g water change yesterday.

Yes, you will still see a lot of algae, although it is about 70% less than it was 3 weeks ago. It continues to improve, but still have a ways to go.

We will let Trump and Sushi continue to get settled in and will look to add another fish in about 2 -3 weeks. Thinking of Dwarf Angel or Foxface. Not sure yet. Will wait a few more months before adding any coral or anemones.
