Hello all! I've been lurking the forums for a couple weeks now, and thought that it's time for me to post a pic of my tank. It's been up for a month or so and I'm loving it so far. My brother is a hardcore enthusiast with an awesome 42g and got me into purchasing my own tank. It's amazing how addicting this hobby can get; I've been going to my local LFS stores almost everyday. I wanted a small tank that can fit in my room, and i figured this 10g would do just fine. I plan to upgrade in the near future. As of now, here's whats inside

 

Hardware:

 

- IM 10g AIO Fusion

- IM Desktop Ghost Protein Skimmer

- TruTemp Aquarium Heater

- Live Rock

- 10lb CaribSea Fine Sand

- Tuna Blue Kessil A160WE w/ Gooseneck (Gift from my brother)

 

Filtration:

 

- Chemipure Blue

- Filter Floss

 

Livestock:

 

- Ocellaris Clown

- Domino Damsel

- Green Star Polyps

- 4 Blue-Legged Hermits

- 3 Turbo Snails

 

Future Hardware:

 

- VorTech MP10

- IM Custom Caddy

- Kessil Spectral Controller

 

Future Livestock:

 

- FrogSpawn

- A couple Zoa colonies

- Suggestions???

Welcome to nano reef,

 

You are of to a great start! Tank is looking good man.

Great gift from your brother, kessil's are good lights for these little tanks. Looking forward to see how this tank develops.

Don't know if you have one, but you may want to invest in an ATO. The autoaqua smart micro or tunze nano are very good options.

Forgot to mention I have an ATO in my plans, but wasn't sure which one to go with. I'll definitely look into the ones you suggested! As for the gift, it was very kind of him to lend me one of his A160s. He gave his other A160 to his other friend who just got into the hobby. He recently bought two A360's for 400 off a guy who just wanted them gone :lol:
