So, I may have found a source of some of the acros that have been giving me issues: I was cleaning my Nero 3 that I was going to remove from the Frag Tank to the new 25g tank and found the magnet casing around the motor cracked and rusted in several spots. I think its been that way for a while which is probably why it was clicking and loud for the past several months. I cleaned it often, but usually just scrubbing the outer shell and not inside the pump. For now I will keep a better eye on all the magnets/pumps in the tank.

Love the tank, your updates, and videos. Glad you share the good and the bad news. Your tank is incredible, so knowing even you at times have STN/RTN events is helpful and helps me stay the course during difficult moments. It seems at any given moment there is always at least one coral not doing well, ugh.

The tank looks really good. The growth is amazing. It looks packed even though you removed a lot.

I'm a big fan of LCH. Tank looks amazing.

To kill coral just cover it in kalkpaste, instantly kills tem.

How far do you have this away from the wall? I just received my 170EXT the other day and trying to measure the realistic dimensions in the room. If you could tell me inches from the wall to the front of the tank, I'd appreciate it! Thx!

Looks fantastic. Which brand tank did you switch to? I might have asked that about a year ago, but I forget. Was there an issue with the Red Sea?

Hey man, I just got this same tank and am taking some inspiration from you! I am currently looking into lights and am struggling with all the options for a tank this big. I will just be focusing on sps and softy corals as well as fish so lighting isn't the main priority for me. I'm looking at the Orphik Atlantik iCon but I'm between one or two of them. I'd like to just get by with one to save some money but I'm wondering fi two is really needed. Any thoughts? Love the videos and keep it up!

Nice tank. You are running nutrients too low. That’s the most likely cause of your issues. Those ATI Straton give spread and even par like T5s. Easy to pale out SPS under them. Try raising your PO4 to .2-.3. Phosphate is just as important as salinity and alkalinity, but no one seems to be talking about that.
