Hello all,

 

I've been posting in the beginner's forums and thought I'd post here since I guess mine would be considered a pico...

My tank is a half ten gallon long... i wanted a low long tank... something that would kind of look like a tide pool where you just want to reach in and pet some of the animals inside... hehe of course you wouldn't touch them...

 

It's only been 1 week since I started... so here's what it looks like for now:

I have 3 u-tubes sending water back to my refugium:

And a small pump pushing water back to my main... I'm probably gonna move my fuge behind the main tank later on.. but it's set a bit to the side for now so I can keep an eye on it...

 

They don't have Chaeto in Korea.. so i'm using some other marine plants that I could find locally.. I'm working with my LFS to try and get some chaeto for my fuge.. but I thought this would be better than nothing... what does everyone think? I'm not sure what they are called:

I'm thinking of getting a CUC of 5 ~ 10 hermit crabs.. and 1 fish.. maybe a clown if the tank is not too small for it... or a small goby of some sort... my LFS says I should try putting in a fish next week.. .so far it's been 1 week since it's been up... I need to buy a water test kit...

 

Plz let me know what you think.. and any tips would be greatly appreciated...

I got this tank in Korea.. but I noticed that many people are referring to them as half ten gallon long tanks... The water in mine seems to be about 5 gallons...

 

I think you can get it at a site called www.glasscages.com

 

here's a link where they discuss it

Some LFS should be able to order any custom size tank you want, one of mine ordered a few 10g long tanks (36" long).
