Current FTS - 20.11.2017


Background :
I’ve been a fan of Reef tanks for ages but always was afraid to start one myself so I kept myself busy with freshwater tanks. After reading a lot about them, especially this forum, I decided to start my first Nano Reef. My initial plan was to start something small, around 6 Gallons. But after going through this forum, I saw how hard it is to keep small aquariums stable. So I decided to start with a 26 Gallon.

● 26 Gallon Custom Tank with a filter compartment in the back. Altogether around 30 Gallons.

Equipment :
● Resun 1000L/h Submersible Pump
● Jebao RW-4 Wavemaker
● Resun SK-300 Nano Protein Skimmer
● Zetlight ZA1201 Marine LED Light

● 15 Pounds of Live Sand
● Filter Sponge
● GAC
● Purigen

Livestock:
Fish:
● Firefish (Nemateleotris magnifica) x 1
● Black Photon Clownfish (Amphiprion percula) x 2
● Segmented Blenny (Salarias segmentatus)x 1
