Ive got a hex thats 2' tall and 18" from side to side..I think its like 40 gallons or so... Its connected to my 25g sump sharded with my 75g reef...

It used to be a seahorse tank before my tank lost electricity for a weekend while I was on vacation..

Trying to decide what to do with it its got a 2" DSB and a fwe chunks of LR.

A. Seahorse tank, would require not much...just some seahorses and caulerpa for them to hold on to (ive got ond 65w LOA light on it right now)

B. Predator tank..This would be cool to get a trigger or lionfish of some sort, just because it would be something new (that I cant put in my reef)...

C. Clownfish tank with anemone, ive had a pair of clowns before, never with an anemone..I was thinking if I put a 250w halide on this tank, I could do this, and then have some SPS corals in there as well...

Im stumped on a hood for this, I made a really nice one for my 75 but dont want anything too difficult!
Any pics would be great of your tank, give me some ideas on what to do.

Thanks!

My vote is for the predator tank. You may need to upgrade your skimmer to handle the decaying foods.
