What do you mean you aren't psychics? I've been mislead all this time???

 

I have a 32w Retrofit Smartlite for lighting.

 

Aquaclear Mini HOB

Mini-Jet 404 PH

12 lbs ls

9-10 lbs lr

pH- 8.2

Temp- 78 degrees

SG- 1.023

Nitrites, Nitrates, Ammonia- 0

10-15% weekly water change

 

I think that's everything.

with 32 watts of light I would stick to soft corals like xenia, polyps, shrooms any of those can adapt to a lower light and will grow pretty good in a nano they are easy to care for just do your water changes. you can try large polyps stoney corals but... in a nano sweeping tentacles can be a problem have fun

try a xenia. what do you have in your tank right now (livestockwise)?

[jdiver]

on the things I mentioned, but also see them mentioned frequently as suggested corals. Perhaps I will wait until I get a larger tank in 4-5 months.

 

As far as what I currently have with livestock:

3 Blue Leg Hermits

1 Scarlet Hermit

1 Astrea Snail

2 Black Snails (awesome workers)

2 Trochus Snails

1 Ocellaris Clownfish

1 Feather Duster (survived the attack of the Peppermint Shrimp)

Green Star Polyps

Various hitchhikers (Stomatella, Bristle Worms, Feather Dusters, Peanut Worm, etc.)
