20 Gallon Long Reef build thread

[SoSaNaNoReef20L]

Hello everyone well this is my third go around with building a reef and I am very excited about trying out the Nano reef side of things as my last tank was 150 gallon tall....


So far this is what I've got
2x koralia 740GPH
30lbs live rock
30lbs live sand
Coral life HO t5 96watt w/led moon lights.
1-75watt heater


As of now I'm doing the natural filtration setup but I plan on buying a Skimmer in the coming weeks before the corals.I also plan on buying a wave makerTo help the flow overkill out but I plan for this tank to be a SPS so flow is needed... This will be my first go at SPS so have a lot more to learn before jumping in..It has been running since last Monday water quality is very good so far so I hope to start adding things in a week or two...waiting on my stand to come in as I custom ordered it extra high (40inches) so it would help out viewing the tank...

Enough talk here are some pictures

well SPS are going to like that flow but man that is ALOT in a 20L. do you have lower flow areas for some softies or are you going for an SPS dominant tank?
