Okay, so most of my pictures and documentation are already posted on Google+
https://plus.google.com/111439509499709878540/posts/36fQRPTo1aV most of the pictures have comments on what changed between them, but I haven't posted recent changes. But here's the quick down and dirty.
We started with a 4 gallon Innovative Marine Nuvo that was a Christmas gift. We stocked with a frogspawn, an Eagle Eye zoa, a small Xenia frag (which we lost, and later replaced), a cleaner shrimp, a pair of turbos and a clown on day 1 (I can already imagine the shudders here from not breaking in a tank before stocking). This tank flourished for some reason as the pictures show. The only thing we change in the tank itself was the pump since it couldn't push the Spin Stream we ordered.
My sister-in-law also entered the hobby, and decided after a short time that she wasn't too interested in the upkeep, so she gave us her Innovative Marine 20 gallon Nuvo, and we also kept her frogspawn and duncan. We upgraded the pump to a Cobalt MJ1200 in order to push the two Spin Streams that are on it. We tried a Solar Flare 120 HO LED, and that apparently was too much light when sitting directly on the tank, so we swapped that for a pair of IM's 18w Skkye Lights, and also got two IM Media Baskets.
So the current tank specs:
IM 20 gallon Nuvo
Return Pump: Cobalt MJ1200 (at max power, flowing shipped single pipe to a y-split)
2x Spin Streams
1x Hydor Nano
2x media baskets, both configured as two chambers: Polyfilter on top, ClearFX on one side and ceramic rings on the other)
2x 18w Skkye Lights
~20lb pink bimini
No clue how much rock, just grabbed what we liked and reused from the 4 gallon
Livestock:
2x Blue Chromis
1 standard Clown
1 Semi-Picasso Clown
2x Emerald crabs
2x horseshoe crabs
2x turbo snails (from 4 gallon)
5x margarita snails
Corals:
1 Candy stripe trumpet
1 Green Flowerpot
"A small forest" of Xenia (original from 4 gallon)
Green Star Polyp (original from 4 gallon)
1 Scroll Coral (unknown condition)
4 Zoa frags: Eagle Eye (original from 4 gallon), Rasta, and two unknowns (if anyone can identify, please do! I am REALLY curious what I got at Cora Swap)
1 Green Button Polyp frag
2 Frog Spawns (one from original 4 gallon)
1 Duncan
1x Orange Rhodactis (from Cora Swap)
1 unknown SPS (Cora Swap, again, identification would be great!)
Here are some of the pictures from today (apparently Google Photos won't link here, or they are too big, and unfortunately I am too tired to play with this before bed, so links instead...):
