Love my wp40! It does great in a 220 and has been solid for me for 7 months

Unless you have a well established tank with good lighting there's little chance you can keep an anemone for the long term.

Blurry but best I could get

Either a protien skimmer or maybe some macro algae to handle nutrient export.

Thought I'd share my new rbta on here, got it from a local reefer and just got a pair of tr ocellaris babies to host it.

The more gpd only tells you how much clean water your unit can make in a day, I don't believe it says anything on the ratio of waste to clean water. +1 to aquasafecanada even though my unit is around 6 years old

If you go with that predator tank, I would avoid a trigger and lion. Many types of triggers will take out a lion if housed together for an extended period of time

I love my aqua-c remora hob

Yea nassarius snails love dead things. Just watched a show where an army of them raced up to the beach to eat a dead fish, was disturbing to see snails attack a carcass

That's insane! Would I be weird if I was hoping to see a pic?

IMO you're setting yourself up for failure. 10 gallon is hard enough (unless you're doing plenty of WCs) for someone with experience let alone someone just jumping into it. Best thing I can tell you is research as much as your brain can handle. A short list of things to know about would be...

Yea I use a $10 led screw in bulb from lowes. Works out cheaper than buying bulbs for any other fixture

I made a sump out of a 10 gallon (knocked out one of the front boards) and used a aqua C remora on the back of my 54 corner. Worked great for me, was always pulling nasty gunk out of my tank

Set up has a lot to do with it. Your chances of keeping both fish in a 6ft tank would be much better than a 56 round. With their similar body shapes, I doubt they'll get along. Best bet is to establish the goby in the tank then add the dotty.

As with most aquarium advice, info about the set-up is helpful. Size of tank, how much LR, other inhabitants. Seems you've got the right idea though, maybe even keep the pseudo out of the tank for some time and let the goby make a burrow and get comfortable
