Nano suggestions.

[JohnnyMantis]

I am going to put together a nano tank for the following
1. Yashia or Tangora Goby and the corresponding shrimp.
2. Either an Orchid Psuedo, two Firefish or a Secretive Wrasse.
3. Snails, no crabs.
4. Oh, and lets not forget a few very easy soft corals, mushrooms or polyps.
Any ideas for a tank size and set-up?

It was suggested that I put the LR in before the sand so the shrimp does not get squashed digging under rocks but I think I will place the rocks on 1-1/2” x 1-1/2”rings made of PVC with a dado cut out.

10 gallon or 20 long would work well for you.

I think you could get away with a 15 gallon at minimum.

That will give the fish some room and be able to house everything you want.

However, I think if you do more reaserach around and look at other peoples tanks and experiences.... a 20 gallon would be better. Just the more room for fish to swim, more room for corals, and the bigger the tank- the easier.

Good luck!

I like to 20 gallon long idea. That way if you want more light demaning corals later on you will have a wider selection of lighting options. Plus more swimming room for your fish.
