Hey- i started a 2.5 gallon nano tank. Before I say more, I'll give out all the information on the tank and water specs:
Tank: 2.5 (12x8x10)
Light: 13 watt PC Jalli 50/50
Filter: Tetratec 150 filter
Live sand, about 2" deep
PH: 8.0
If necessary, I plan on a small powerhead, but I think the filter is giving a good, tidal flow to the tank, which I think is good... :?
All other levels, ammonia, nitrite, are too young to measure cause the tank was just set-up. I'm gonna do a cycle with fish food. I plan on buying live rock via the internet in a few days or so. I hope to keep the following in the tank: a oscellaris clown, some hermies, and a couple snails. But I have a ?...
First, is the lighting sufficient to keep a condy anemone and some shrooms in there? I know they need bright light, so is my light good nuff for it? The fixture seems to give off alot of light while the depth of the water isnt too deep, being around 6-8" or so. So given that, would I be incorrect to say that the light has too deep to reach to penetrate the sand bed?
Anyhoo, I'll post some pics soon too! Thanks!
