Well, my FOWLR lasted about a week. I found a guy who was fragging some of his corals, so he gave me a sweet deal on two pieces. One of the pieces was large (green zoas,and frilly mushroom) and I was able to break it up into 3 smaller frags. So hear is my 10g nano reef:

It is kind of hard to see everything in the photo, because all of the frags haven't opened up all the way.

i think the green in the fuge removes nitrates

That container is a soap dish that I bought from target. It is holding chaetomorphia (spelling?) macro-algae. It is there just to process nitrates in the tank. Most people put chaeto in their sump or refugium, but if you don't have one, the soap dish is a decent substitute.

I am going to convert one of my HOB aquaclears into a fuge as soon as I can find a good light for it.
