[sabazerehi]

looks really good. i wish i took pics of my tank when i first started so i could compare them to what i have now. the transformation would've been really interesting to see. keep taking pics!

[flamethis]

Very nice! I like the rockwork and the corals..
So you have a K-nano and a K-1 powerhead, plus the fluval? How much flow is that in total?

[chrishet]

Sweet! Keep those pics coming and best of luck!

[CFranklin25]

looking good. what bulbs did you change to?

[jonathanws]

looks great, what do you have for flow? i'm thinking about starting another tank, either a 20L or 20H

Very nice, is that an watchman goby? How is it doing? What does it favor for food?

[jimboslice]

I am using the stock T-5 bulbs that came with the sundial unit. The 4x24w sundial unit is much brighter then I thought it would be.

I also use a K1-400gph, K2-600gph, and a fluval 205 canister filter with a 200gph return for a total of 1200gph in a 20 gallon tank. For a total of 60x's turnover. The K2 is a bit stronge and I sometimes have substrate lightly blowing around on the bottom of the tank, but it is not to much flow. I would suggest getting two K-1's for a 20 gallon tank. I would NOT suggest Koralia Nanos for a 20 gallon.

I have been feeding a little bit of everthing. The watchman Goby has been eating anything I put in. Flake, pellets, frozen, and I just started feeding freshly hatched brine. It didn't look like he favored one food over another.

Pretty Acans! keep them fed and happy. :)
