I'm moving my tank from a primarily zoo and LPS tank to a SPS dominant tank. I was wondering how everyone else w/ SPS nano's had their's setup and what it looks like. I'm mainly interested in the equipment you use, what kind of supplements you add, and the age of the tank (now and when you added your first SPS). TIA.

That looks awesome - is that just under the stock light?

Nice colinadam! I'd also like to see some SPS nano's. I only have one frag right now of Green Digitata, and am considering more :D

I'm not sure I'd call mine SPS dominated, but I do have a fair number of SPS frags growing out in my tank.

I have the 70w halide over my 12g Aquapod, no real mods except a bigger pump (MJ900) for more circulation. I don't add/dose anything, no skimmer/fuge/etc.

The tank has been running for just over a year, SPS have been in there for about 10 months. Only lost 1 frag (it fell into a patch of zoos).
