So I’ve been on the the reef tank then moved to clay-boa for several years and figured I might as well share my nano here. Also please don’t post in this thread.

Tank has been set up for 4,1/2 months as a fun stay in the hobby while in school tank and is not my only setup system but for now is the only one I’d like to share. For this tank I use a synthetic salt from tunze I believe and do water changes once a week but might switch to twice weekly. I like using prodibio products and currently I’m finishing up a biodigest pack and may move onto the reef kit I’m not sure. On a tank this small doing frequent water changes probably makes all these additives pointless.

Equipment:
-ghost protein skimmer desktop
-AI hydra 26hd
-aqamai powerhead
-colbalt aquatics neotherm 50w
-return pump sicce syncra 1
-nano tunze osmolator
-Santa Monica drop .2 algae scrubber

For filtration I use the old white & blue filter floss followed by marine pure spheres and a smaller then rated amount of carbon with a pinch of gfo in a bag I made. I plan on hooking up a sump canister onto my protein skimmer and air pump to scrub co2 since it’s winter and even in a nano pH has been low.

Inhabitants:
Inverts/verts
-Bugatti the clownfish from poto
-rainford goby
-cleaner shrimp
-5 trochus snails

Coral
-2 polyp frogspawn
-2 polyp pink hammer
-3 polyp duncan
-3 polyp ARC blackcherry blasto
-1 polyp blasto
-2 polyp rainbow acan
-2 polyp Red/blue acan
-3 polyp green acan
-5 polyp very fat dendro
-3 polyp dendro
-orange leptastrea frag
-wwc purple monster zoa
-vivid rainbow zoa
-grandis paly
-mohawk zoa
-Chiquita zoa
-PPE zoa
-no name zoas believed/sold as Queen kraks

Will update with zoa count possibly and a haul coming from cherry corals very soon. Also will take pictures later today and share past pictures. As I come up with things to add I will.
