Hey all,
I'm brand-new to this saltwater thing! This is my first post as you can see and I thought i'd run my plans by all of you pros. I have a ten gallon tank. I don't know if I'll actually have live plants and stuff yet, but the plans so far are this:
As of right now I have a strong fairly new penguin filter
A heater that i have always used on this 10 gal
saltwater at about 80 deg.
SG at .024-.025 (a tad high but i'm waiting it out)
aragonite substrate
2 green chromis (aprox 1" each)
1 Yellow tailed blue damsel (about 1")
Live rock coming in the next few days
let the tank "simmer" for about a month
swap out the fish and get 1 or 2 Ocellaris (?) clownfish
I need to go to class now- but you get the idea. What other fish could i possibly have in a good 10 gal.?? (ps i have a airstone attached to a pump hose in the water making lots of bubbles and the filter itself moves the water really well. There's a nice current in the tank. The fish are happy as could be right now! What do you all think?? :)
