i bought a 10 gallon flat back hex acrylic tank @ goodwill around a month or so, and decided to try my hand at a nanoreef. i have currently a PC retro in the hood with 50/50 bulbs, i have a total of about 7 wpg, as i am using a large pc fixture. i used some LR and LS from my established tank, and within a week the thing was cycled. the stock list is as follows:
1 red shroom (2 daughter polyps about to detatch)
2 2" frags of green star polyps
1 yellow sea whip frag (removed from my big tank, eats and grows like a weed)
3 blue leg hermits
assorted feather dusters, sponges and pods from the live rock
several snails
to be added:
porcelan crab
several zoas
several xenia colonies
maintenance:
1 g w/c every week
auto top off with RO water
supplements with various trace elements and phytoplankton (for the gorgonian)
everything is growing and looking great, once i said i would never be in to nanos but now i am starting to het addicted!
