What should I do with this tank

pledosophy · #1 09/07/2007, 01:38 AM

It's a 20g long glass tank. Has 20g sump. 150w HQI lighting. Fluval 304 cannister filter. Mag 5 return. Remora Skimmer. 40 ish lbs of LR between the sump and display.

Currently holding, sun coral. . . that's it.

I was growing some stuff in there but once I setup the 65g all my frags went to there. Now have to figure out what to do with this setup.

Any cool ideas?

Dream on.

Would like to keep some corals mainly but IME so far the SPS have not done well. I think partially do to the very low bioload I was keeping in it.

Any cool fish recommendations. Thought about pipefish, but would really like some type of active benethnic fish.

Ideas?

What about clownfish pair with a bubble tip or some kind of anemone? Also you can do seahorses. Your sig says you have experience with seahorses. Are they in another tank?

a shark.

No jk,

but I saw this really cool fish at the lfs.
It was called like a Hawaii cleaner wrasse, or something like that.
It was so colorful.
I'll search for it just to be sure.

It kinda looked like this.
Plus now that I think of it size might be a problem.

I think it would be really cool if someone did a species only tank for this fish, because I have never seen it done before.

Been thinking about an RBTA and a pair of clowns. Wife likes the Nemo's.

The tank is to short for seahorses except maybe brevies, but I don't want to run the chiller to keep the brevies.

Seahorses are in a system of there own. They are kinda my thing and have been for years, but in keeping them I have always been so limited on other stocking, I'm just learning about much outside of the seahorse world. Been keeping LPS,SPS, and clams for just over a year, could never have them with the horses.

Thanks.
