hi all..
this is my first topic here.. hope somebody can help me
I bought this aquarium http://www.aquariumline.com/catalog...leto-lampada-filtro-filpo-corner-p-11067.html

10 gallons.

and this pump

http://www.aquariumline.com/catalog/hydor-pico-1120-pompa-movimento-p-9750.html

now the question is what do you suggest to have in such a small aquarium?

and in case if I want to have the following whatelse do I need to by?
case 1: only a couple of Amphiprion ocellaris
case 2: only corals
case 3: a couple of Amphiprion ocellaris and some easy corals
case 4: very small jellyfish "surely not possible"

I have a big aquarium 200 gallons.. so I already have salty water, and all kinds of tests...

please in each case 1, 2 or 3, can somebody tell me what would be the best to do?

for example.. deep sand bed... additional filter... no filter at all.. better illumination.. nano skimmer "is it a must?" .. or the mechanical filter which comes with the aquarium is ok?


thanks in advance for all.. waiting for your help
 
sorry.. I will ask the question in a simple way...

in a 10 gallon .... I would like to have a couple of amphiprion ocellaris.... do you suggest having a deep sand bed? and is it possibile to do so just with the mechanical filter which comes with the aquarium? or must I buy a nano skimmer?
 
I suggest that BB would be better,the light that come with the tank maybe not enough for coral and skimmer won't be necessary if you can change water onece a week and dont have coral.
 
I dont recommend a DSB. An inch or so if you like sand, or BB if you're ok with that. Skimmer is not necessary if you do regular (ie weekly) water changes. I always run a skimmer anyways for the added security (my tank is 11 gallons).

Cheers
 
hey thanks guys.. what percentage of the total water volume do you suggest me to change weekly?

and why don't you recommend a DSB of 3 inches? I am thinking about having a deep sand bed, and the minimum live rocks..
