My New 36 Gallon Bowfront
Well it's been awhile since i've been on here but my 60 gallon has been taken down and the 3 damsel fish I had in their moved to a 10 gallon. But now on to the title tank I recently purchased a 36 gallon bowfront off craigslist with a deluxe light hood for $60. I'm not using that hood though. I'm using the Corallife 150W MH Pendant I already had. The other equipment I have is a Whisper Tetra 30-60 gallon HOB Filter and a CPR Bac Pak 2 Protein Skimmer, 1 Hydor Evolution 750 circulation pump, and I think a 165 gph powerhead in the back, a 200 watt heater and a 50 watt also, and I believe that is it. My goal for this tank is to be a mixed reef but with only a few SPS if any. Not sure on livestock plans as of yet because I just set it up about 4 days ago. By the way i have about 15 pounds of liverock mixed in with about 30 pounds of dead live rock from my 60. If there's anything else you think I may need to do to have this setup please tell me and it would be much appreciated if you did. Now time to try to upload these pics.

Can a mod move this to the Nano tank forum because I believe that would be a better place for it.

I think you are on your way to creating a great little tank. Good luck to you!

Well I got some more frags today and a couple inverts. The frags I got are some type of acro sps and a reddish color mushroom. The inverts I got were a feather duster and pink tip Haitian anemone. Well I'm gonna take some pics of my tank and upload them in a little bit but not everything's open right now because I was trying to find a good placement for the corals.
