scoopaloops reef jar

[scoopaloops]

Alright so long time lurker first time poster have had a 120 gallon reef tabk for 2 years now but with new addition to the family and renovation of a house from the forties let's just say that isn't going to be set back up for awhile in the meantime to fuel my addiction ove decided to start up a reef jar and give that a shot.So far this is my equipment list:

-1.5 gallon glass jar with glass lid

 

-Tom's c-80 canister filter (picked that up used from lfs figured would be perfect for flow and some sort of media filtration or possibly small refugium, ideas on that?)

-small heater that I used in my biocube

-now as far as light I do have a 1 year old tao tronics dimmable led fixture that I really never used on my 120 due to a good deal I found on metal halide afterwards. So my question stick with that or pick up a par 38 full spectrum?

 

- have as much dry rock from my 120 gallon when I shut that down so I plan On breaking some up and aquascaping thinking about going bare bottom just reduce nitrat issue otherwise thick crushed coral instead.

 

Stocking wise I lovvvee softies, pom poms waving hand xenias etc..love the way they move with the flow..but I'd also like to keep anything that catches my eye.

 

One or two hermits maybe a cerith or two and that's it.

 

To keep it all fresh 100% wc every week.

 

Whatcha all think? Once I get the pieces together here in about a week I'll post some pick and get this thread started..who doesn't love pics right??!
