gsol1911 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Hey guys and gals here is my 5 gallon. I'm running Ai Prime over my tank. Filtration I use purigen,phosguard,and chemipure. All levels are at 0 and do weekly water changes. Corals seem to be doing great. I had to add a rock to the back wall for extra real-estate. I want to put a 1-2" clam on the sand bed and replace the candy can coral with a bubble coral. Any suggestions? 3 1 Quote Link to comment

REEFerMAdNESS88 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 tank looks awesome 2 questions: who makes the tank and what type of sand is that??? 1 Quote Link to comment
Obsessed Reefer Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 How is the rock in the top right of the first picture held in place? 1 Quote Link to comment
gsol1911 Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 It is the marineland portrait 5gallon it cost like $50. And the rock is held in place with aquastick gel I think that is what I used. It is the glue used for frags. Use rock rubble and glue different small pieces together.the glue won't stick unless the glass is clean of algae or debris . Sand is carib sea live sand. 1 Quote Link to comment

Wonderboy Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Now I'm really looking forward to the 20 - glad you're at it again already Quote Link to comment
andrewmedic08 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Was that the contour or portrait? Was it all stock or you changed the filter system/ light/ pump thank you Quote Link to comment
pabst Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Just got this tank going to try a pico! What filter set up did you use to have what you listed in it? Was thinking of making a custom egg crate caddy Quote Link to comment
