My 20L finally...

[iggygrl76]

Now that I have some issues cleared up I figured I would share a pic of my 20L....

Inside I have
1 false percula
1 true percula
1 baby blue tang
1 target mandarin
1 bicolor blenny
1 clown goby
1 cleaner shrimp
2 sexy shrimp
1 sally light foot
3-4 blue leg hermits
various cerith, nassarius and trochus snails

Coral wise I have
1 green striped mushroom
1 blue bumpy mushroom
1 gonipora
1 yellow polyp
several green button polyps 2 large colonys 1 smaller one
2 different colonies of zoas one large one teeny
1 green mouth palythoa
1 type of acropora peachy inside greeny/yellow polyps
1 3 head lobophilia
1 big sun coral colony
1 very large clump of halimeda algae its about quintumpled in size from when i got it. I had it in my lil aquapod and have recently moved it to this 20L

Filtration I have a big old double side marineland HOB filter with some chemi pure, carbon and filter flossy stuff
Skimmer I have the Prizm it is working out pretty good once I got it broke in and set.
I also have a RUGF running on this and I have to say the tank seems much healthier now than my lil aquapod....
I have a metal heater in there with a controller on it I believe its a finnex 200w
I used aragonite for the bottom the very chunky stuff and I have a ton of live rock in there I have no idea lb wise but probally 30-40lbs. Most of it was completely cycled from my old tank ..Im really happy with how this is looking right now I love the aquascaping.

I know the lil blue tang is going to have to find a new home in a few months but I just wanted to have him for at least a lil bit. It seems very happy and gets along well with my other fish It picks at algae and stuff all day long.

I cant believe I forgot ot list my Acan colony! its doing really well hard to see how much it puffs up do to how I have it recessed into a rock face but its really pretty.

that will be a lot of fish for a 20g. that tang gets pretty large. just fyi for future reference. Looking good though.

Here is a bigger pic I had to piece 3 pics together ...

 

[iggygrl76]

Yea I know im gonna have to find him a bigger home in the next few months but Im gonna enjoy him while I have him/her.

 

[iggygrl76]

Yep I watch her closely...Shes been pretty good though. Had her in my lil 12 aquapod and just moved her this week to the 20l. I think ive had her the longest of everything in my tank. The lil blue leg crabs i have to watch like hawks though they like to kill my bigger snails even though they have PLENTY of shells to choose from in a variety of sizes..

Looks good to me and being you are running a RUGF it will probably stay looking good.

 

[iggygrl76]

I have to say paul other than an unfortunate flat worm issue (came in on something i bought) Its been the healthiest tank Ive ever had I think. I have nice purple coraline growing slowly but its obvious on many rocks and my buttons and zoas are going like gangbusters and the gonoporia just loves it in there and the acans are looking great to! I am pretty darn happy with RUGF in my tank and I will definately use it on any future tanks to.

You sound like a very intelligent person not to be taken in with the DSB nonsence
Your tank will last forever, I hope you are running the thing very slow
