I just wanted to say ahead of time that I'm glad to be a part of this forum and thanks to all of you that can offer me some thoughts or advice.. I am familiar with keeping successful fresh water tanks and have always desired a tank with a clown and host bta.. That is basically all I want .. I want this in an area of my home where I spend most of my time.. That is why I have chosen the look of the innovative nuvo 16g.. I also considered the new cad lights pico 18g.. I have been reading up watching you tube videos and doing some research for awhile now.. I am READY and excited but a little nervous too.. I don't want to kill anything and want to give my new pet clown a nice environment .... I know I can't add the host until my tank is at least 6 months and doing well.. I want to stay as small as I can to start out and then maybe down the road move on to bigger.. I basically know how to get started but what I need to know is can this particular tank be a suitable home for a clowny percula and bta host?? The cad lights has lighting eqv. of 75w T5HO.. The nuvo 16g is my first choice and has 2 Skyye LEDs 10000K each. Do I need to ad an extra Skyye led to boost it to three lights?. I am sure I want an AIO so please offer me any ideas or let me know if any of these tanks will work.. I plan on having a tunze nano skimmer also..And also staying on top of water changes and upkeep.. Ok all you experienced reefers please help this newbie!! Haha!! THANKS a TON!!!

Look into an auto top off system for evaporation to keep salinity stable. I personally think you will be ok with your light setup. When u introduce your anemone position it in the middle of the tank and it should go towards or away from the light depending on which it likes.if it goes up towards the light u might want to add another light. For such a small tank go with a bta found locally youll have better success than getting 1 shipped.
