Aquarium Advice Freak
ok. so i've decided to start a small nano tank. i was very inspired by kcandcritters nano tank, which she said is only a half gallon! so i've been doing a lot of research (which hasn't helped a whole lot because everyone has different opinions of what equipment is best, and so on) so i thought i'd see if you guys could help me out. I thought maybe if i told you what i had in mind, you could help direct me to what i need to achieve it. so here goes.
i want a small nano tank, really small, between 5 and 10 gal.
of course i'll need live rock
i think i'd also like to go with a SSB to give the live rock a hand in the dinitrifing - oh and what does "seeding the sandbed mean?"
if i'm doing live rock do i need a filter or a just a protien skimmer?
obviously a heater and lights
any lighting suggestions for a small tank?
and what type of corals would do well in this type of tank.
when it comes to fish, i don't know, i'd like a yellow goby or a fire fish
would they work ok in a tank this small?
what about hermits and snails?
i know that i've asked a lot of questions, but hey you guys love giving advice right? any comments or answers anyone can give will be much appreciated!
thanks in advace!
oh ps, i'm not planning on starting for a few months or so (cause obviously i dont know enough yet!)
