If_Only Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 So I have decided on keeping a fluval 13.5 as my first reef tank, I maintain one at my LFS I help out at, so im not completely new, and im curious about my stocking, I was thinking about keeping one clownfish (Ive heard this is ok) so my stock list will be below Equipment -Korelia 425gph powerhead -Hipargero 30W LED -InTank media basket running chemi-pure blue, sachem matrix (just because ill have a spare compartment) and poly filter pad. -Eheim Jäger 50w heater -ATO micro -5-10 Lbs of dry rock, how ever much fits my scape. -10 lbs of Fiji pink Arag-alive Corals (Just what im starting with) -Multiple types of leathers -Zoas -Hammer coral -Frogspawn -Kenya tree -Elegence (I know it might out grow my tank but I LOVE them) -Candy cane -GSP (separate rock) -Monti cap Fish & Inverts - 1-2 narssarius snails - 1-2 torchus snails - 1 Cleaner shrimp - 1 Occ. Clownfish - 1 Clowngoby - 1 neon goby or firefish Thoughts? Anything that should be changed, is there too much. Quote Link to comment
Fragmental Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Sounds good. Just stock slow and it should work out. Looking forward to seeing it come about! Quote Link to comment

Clown79 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Ya sounds like a good plan. I'd add a mesh lid if you plan on the firefish. They are skittish and jump alot. I'd also add it before the clown. 1 Quote Link to comment

mattitheowl Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 From a bit of googling it would appear they are diatoms. Quote Link to comment

Sounds good 👍 When I went in to buy my fluval evo there was a Red Sea max 170 on discount and bought that... probably should have said that, I got this tank because then I can try a wrasse (favorite fish) Quote Link to comment
Jim80 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Fair enough. That’s my next tank. Fancy starting a build thread for that? Quote Link to comment
