i've had this tank running probably 9 months or so now...honestly i can't remember. it's your basic 10 gallon petsmart tank (free from a buddy); 3-4" HD play sand (roughly 25 or so pounds); 14# rock rubble (give or take); AC 70 for carbon and chaeto fuge; MJ 600 for additional flow.

salinity is controlled with an auto-top off from a 2.5 gallon tank below the display. Water changes done every week to 2 weeks & approx. 2-3 gallons each WC.

Stock list is as follows:

Fish: Bicolor blenny (Ecsenius bicolor) named Theo!

Inverts: 2 Emerald crabs (Mithrax sculptus); 2 Peppermint shrimp (Lysmata wurdemanni); 2 Sexy anemone shrimp (Thor amboinensis); 3 Astrea snails; few dozen Collonista sp. snails, some Stomatell varia snails; and a few Columbellid sp. snails.

finally got a photobucket account setup so i figured i'd post some pics. focus of the tank is a Zoanthid garden, with roughly 8 different kinds of Zoanthids and a few SPS (pocillopora, stag and montipora corals) and 1 LPS (plate coral) and 4 kinds of Macro algae.

thanks m1enbo1,

light on the main tank is an older version Odyssea. 175w 20,000k HQI with 2x18 watt PC actinics and 2 LED blue moonlights.

light on the AC filter is just a coralife 50/50 PC.
