Although it has been almost a year since THIS, I seam to keep leaving and coming back to this project.
I am once again ready to give this whole nano reef tank idea a try... my wife's B-Day is October 18th, and this tank shall be her present (I do all the work and she gets to enjoy it, and give her opinion on what goes in the tank)
Here is where I am at:
10 Gallon Tank the Dwarf Puffer died, so the tank is free again
Will get
15-20 lb Live Rock
Live sand for substrate
Did a little research at a couple LFS today and this is what they suggested
Lighting: a clip on light from Coralife w/ 150 watt Metal Halide Bulb (like THIS)
They said this light will let me grow "anything"
Filtration: Skilter 250 Power Filter/Skimmer Combo Job
Thoughts and opinions on these two items?
So of the inverts that caught my wife's eye (I have no research them yet, but perhaps you all can let me know if anything will not work at all)
Chocolate Chip Starfish
Brittle star
Peppermint Shrimp
Tube Worm
Flam Scallop
Purple Tip Anemone
Nudabranch
Green Eyed Fauia
Green Mushroom
Orange Zoanthids
Hermit Crabs
Fish she likes are Clowns and Gobies (species recommendations are welcome)
So if you get a chance give me any opinions, suggestions, advice and problems you can see.
Thanks!
