I can't wait to see it bustling with more angels, you're pretty much building my dream tank here lol

Have you got people holding your corals for you or just running a simple setup to keep them in?

Thought process with the Texas holey rock?
Not something you normally find in a marine tank.
Personally I like the texture & shapes in holey rock, was just never sure of it's "worth" as filtration method in a marine setup.

Scape looks great :D

My last tank was a mix of hole rock and standard base rock, this is also but ratio would be 60% holey rock to 40% base rock.

As for filtration I am relying on skimmer and bio pellets, FWIW I think there is similar filtration in holey rock and sand then base/live rock and bare bottom.

Tanks lookin good ryan. Hows the new light? Is it straight t5 or a giesmann hybrid. Keen to see your results with the reactor and AIO's.
