Mmm...Salty.
Hey everyone,
Sorry to have wasted everyone's time about my 20L and 46 Bow I never completely started. I was contemplating last night (after I asked all the questions about lighting the 46) to take a break from this hobby for a year until I moved to a place and had the money to properly take care of a reef. I've 100% decided for once, that i'll be doing a 10G nano in my room.
This is mostly because i'm giving my 20long to a friend to use as a leopard gecko tank and the 46 gallon literally takes up 1/4 of my tiny room.
Starting tomorrow, I will be building a cabinet/shelf for my room from leftover pieces of wood from my father's old walk-in closet and combining it with my wire-frame 36'' rack I had used for the 20long. Time to test my carpentry skills. :frustrat:
Once I clean out my formerly planted tank tmrw, I'll be spraying the back black and starting a 10G nano build! Look for it!
I'm also happy about going with a 10G nano b/c I don't have to worry about RO/DI units as of now (no money, no space for one), I can actually afford to buy water for this sized tank!
Specs: (Tentative)
-Live Rock (10-15 lbs.)
-Live Sand (~10 - 20 lbs.)
-Aquaclear Filter (Forgot which model, will attempt to mod into mini-fuge)
-Ocellaris Clowns (2)
-Will most likely be buying this 70W MH (based on Biff's--inspired me lol)
70W Metal Halide Pendant Lights
-I'd like to try keeping these corals:
-Neon Green Palau Nephthea
-Some Ricordeas
-Giant Green Polyp Duncan
-Pulsing Xenias
-Sun polyps
-Torch Corals?
-Frogspawn (I read they're not too fond of halides...opinions?)
--I also previously purchased a petco brand powerhead (20-40G) I can't seem to find the GPH rating for it online (left the box at home). I'm worried it'll be too strong for a 10G because even in the 46G it felt pretty strong.
---Side note: I only bought this because it was cheap and my last three powerheads all crapped out on me.
