This is my 10 gallon saltwater aquarium. It is all live rock... And ihad it set up for about 1.5 months. IT is doing great and i havnt had one death yet! :D
The tank has a penguin filter in it with a heater and a light..I plan on getting a nice light for my tank. So i can have corals...Any hardy corals that are recommended...Pics are welcome...any comments welcome...

As for the inhabitants i have a hermit crab, a Citron Goby, and a Cherub Pgmy Angel.

now here are the pictures.......

It looks good. I just purchased a 10 gal tank that I plan on doing a fowlr. How much Live Rock and How much sand did you put in the tank? I just want to get an idea of how much I should buy for my tank. Thanks!

the rock is all live rock. all live rock and i put about 2inches of sand i nthere so my goby can dig in it...heheh and i plan on keeping the angel in there for a while
 
Would you say about 10 lbs LR and 10lbs sand? That is what I was going to buy. I just want to get an idea of how it would look in my tank.

That angel is going to need more space eventually. It looks small enough now that it might be comfortable, but you might end up stunting it's growth. I have a coral beauty in a 20 gal and I feel I'll have to upgrade eventually.
 
prolly going to get? Don't even think that..you KNOW your going to get another bigger tank lol. It happens to almost everyone that has a good experience with the saltwater hobby.

Like the tank btw.
