looks great for a 20 gallon, they are hard to pull off IMO

thank you very much for the nice comments, they boost my satisfaction with the tank!!!!!!!!!!

On a side note, does anyone think that adding a neon goby or some sort of goby (firefish, clown, striped etc..) would be too much. That is to say that 3 fish is the max.

Good looking tank, just be careful with the xenia. They will take over your tank.

I am well aware of the xenia, I have already given away 2 stalks to the LFS because it really just takes off and will run over anything!!!

Pretty tank, nice work! I love nanos, but they're hard to work with sometimes. I think you did a great job
If you want to add another fish you could probably get away with it, just keep an eye on the parameters. Just an idea, but replacing the Penguin with an AquaClear modded into a refugium with Chaeto could give you added insurance. I love mine; it keeps NO3 and PO4 at zero in my 30g (four fish).

Thanks, right now in the bio-wheel filter part there are all sorts of sponges and tube worms living in it. It is kind of neat!!!! I think I am definitley maxed out for corals after my last purchases. I can barely fit anything else in it. I smell a tank upgrade!!!!!!

you need a bigger tank! all thoes coras have out grown the tank. the look too big to be that close. but thats just my opinion. other than that every thing looks great! awsome job, now work on getting a bigger tank!
