[MacnReef]

So here is my newest baby. 24x6.5x7.9 give or take. She is roughly 5 gallons and I like it.

I need to paint the back but had to get it up and running.

Contents?

AZOO tank
MaxiJet 900
Current 65W PC
AquaClear 70 w/mini impellar and turned into a fuge w/cheato
13w PC for fuge

Thats about it...pretty simple but its gonna look good with some corals and a fish.

sweet tank, u gonna fill it with sand or are you gonna keep it barebottom? what fish are you gonna put in it? what about coral?

 

[MacnReef]

Sand won't work in this tank...too much flow...lol

I have some starboard left over that i might use. Maybe a clown, who knows.

You should get a clown goby (or 2) for sure.
good luck!

 

[MacnReef]

Without sand?

Nice looking tank! Loving the clean look on the inside and outside.

Clown gobies are a smaller type of goby, not a sand dwelling goby. They are probably one of the the very bery few that would work in this tank long term. I would do 1, 2 usually fight (even in tank sizes up to 100 gallons).

Any other fish would have to be short term and put into a larger tank.

Good luck and keep us posted with its progress!

Sweet looking tank, did you get it local or online?

 

[Aquariumist]

what corals are u gonna put in it, if any?

 

[MacnReef]

I got the tank local. $10, I might be able to get more if people are interested.

I plan to put mostly rics and zoos. Curently the tank has a rock of green hairy shrooms, a torch coral and a frag of xenia (the wife wanted it...:lol.

Very clean looking tank. I think the BB fits its personality great. Are you going to go with a Black background? Also could you post a pick of you fuge for my own research thank you and good luck.

 

[MacnReef]

I am in Central FL.

Shy...I was thinking of getting some black paint and a small roller and rolling on some black. It definitely needs a background. I am also thinking of ditching the big ol maxijet and getting some smaller power heads and hiding them behind the rocks.

There are pictures of the fuge in my gallery.
