JohnL's 20 Gallon Nano Reef

[JohnL]

What refugium is that? Everything is looking great. Moving fast, watch your ammonia.

CPR AquaFuge 2 Small

I put a poly filer in just to be safe

I love your livestock choices....blennies and gobies are so much fun! KP Aquatics is a great place to order from and you should be happy with your rock. I think you will be happy with the HOB fuge too. Looking good.

Thanks Dawn. I'm very pleased. So nice to have a tank again.

For the refugium I'm using the tunze pump and the light that came with it plus I added the Innovative Marine chaeto light on one side.

Vinny! You da man! Thanks brotha ?

Now... who's trading sps frags?

 

[JohnL]

On Tuesday 3/15, I added two conch and my first two coral frags. An orange plating montipora and a green birdsnest.

I received my goodies from IPSF on Thursday 3/17 which included two free coral frags.

I named my blenny Jack (Jack Blenny) and my rainford's goby Rainy. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the little clownfish or the watchman goby since the third day after adding them :sad2:

I'm very pleased with the tank's progress so far.

I'm planing a 20 gallon tank but not finish yet, what's the rock on your pic 2? can I use only a wave maker on the side ?

Most of the rock is aquacultured live rock. The two deep purple pieces were purchased from a lfs selling it as live rock but it appears to be real reef rock.
