Hi everyone, first post but I have lurked for a while for good advice and tips.
I've just gone and bought this lovely amazing SPS coral... and I only realised when I got home that my current lighting might not be upto it.
Here are a few pictures of the tank,
Its a Aquamarine 40 (40cm cube)
I've got the filtration sorted, and it has a water change once a week to keep the vitamins and stuff happy.
Its full of all the nice creepy crawlies that you could want, and two sexy shrimp.
Not stocked fish for a while as i want to build the corals up first
So far its stocked with:
- 4 ***** trees,
- two colonies of mushrooms,
-A large toadstool
some pesky apitasia (that I have under control)
and my most recent purchase, A cool euphoric green SPS coral.
if anyone feels compelled to identify any of them, I would be so glad. I might know how to care for them a bit better once i know their names.
The only problem is my lighting... Its a Fuval Sea
And here is the question,
What do I upgrade to? Everything is either too big or mind blowingly expensive. I would have a budget of £150-£200
TLDR: Nano tank, currently Fuval Sea, Want something that's better for SPS corals, but will still fit on the tank.
