    Well, Here is my first tank! It isn't the best, but it is what I can do with the money I have...

    Here it is:

    My sump is empty at the moment.. Waiting on a Skimmer and most likely going to make a new sump soon.

    My bubble coral! It has gotten so big (Might frag it? Idk)

    Looks great!
    I don't know of any propagation of the bubble coral...

    Looks great.

    Could be difficult to frag. It has a calcium carbonate skeletal base that the tissue resides in.

    Ditch the wet dry sump if you are doing coral

    I know, I know... I bought it with this setup, and as soon as I get some cash and free time I am going to make a Sump..
