I'm considering changing from a 75 gallon to a nano tank. I just have 2 clown fish so I don't think it would be too hard to do that. I'd like to have some live rock and maybe some corals. I realize I need to watch a smaller tank closer as things go downhill faster, but I'd like to move the tank to an area where we can enjoy it more - which means I need a smaller tank!
Besides which tank to get (I'm researching that now), does anybody have words of wisdom for me as I work towards this transition? I currently have a bio-ball sump system for filtration. Should I transfer some of those to the new filter box to get things started or is it better to start fresh with some live rock rubble from the get-go? I do have a green algae problem so I don't want to transfer THAT to the new tank.
Any thoughts on an 'optimal' sized tank for 2 clown fish, a few corals and maybe another small fish like a goby? Or any other advice that might be helpful for me to consider?
Thanks!
Jodi
