Nick's Story
2019
reefing
My first reef aquarium is a 2.5ft cube which is still my display tank today, I also started a 3ft coral quarantine tank which is a fishless system.
2022
CRASH!
The display tank went through a massive tank crash and pretty much overnight everything was gone.
2023
RESTARTING
The restart of the display tank and my love for Goniopora Coral and LPS Coral in general is quite evident.
2025
Social media!
My instagram journey began in early 2025, and I have met many wonderful reefers along the way.

About Nick's setup
There’s something refreshingly simple about the way these systems are built. No overly complicated sumps or unnecessary extras — just filter floss, plenty of media, and a focus on what actually matters. At the core of it all are the essentials you can rely on every time: a Great White skimmer pulling the system together, Illumagic lighting driving growth and color, and Dalua pumps keeping everything in motion. It’s a straightforward approach, but one that delivers exactly what a thriving aquarium needs.
Lighting | Illumagic X4, Illumagic Blaze X, Vitamini Strips
Filtration | GW7 skimmers
Dosing | Full Coral Essential range
