Nix's 20 Gallon Nano

[Nix]

Hey Nix, if those measurements are correct it is a 20 high. A 20 long is 12x12x30 long.

Ok, Thanks Tolak.

 

[Mr.September15]

Looks good!

Im pretty sure most if not all angels will be too big for 20G.... but im not 100% positive

 

[SkiFletch]

30g and up for dwarf angels, 100g and up for fullsize angels

Ok, that being said, how about this:


Two Clowns (Ocellaris)

4-5 Hermits

4-5 Snails (not turbo, too big)

2 gobies.. (suggestions?)

Anything else I can plan for?

 

[SkiFletch]

Sounds good, Cerith or Trochus snails

Thanks for the conformation ski!

Yay! I knew something about marine fish

Added my final pieces of live rock today, an additional 8.5 pounds, putting me around 20 pounds:

Growth of small new piece

two of the mysterious 'squishy' things opened from earlier.

Angle of the new rock

I've got a lot of these things growing, what are they?

There are several of these laying in an opening between rocks, what the heck is it?!
Somethings feces or what? Any idea what it came from?

 

[Mr.September15]

I have the same things. I believe its either peanutworm or bristleworm poop. I find it almost every morning after I turn on the lights.

 

[SkiFletch]

Spongy things are prolly tunicates or sponges, they'll gravitate towards darker areas of your tank. The other little stringy white thing, I have no idea what those are but they're on every reef tank I've ever seen. Again, they'll gravitatate towards dark areas of your tank with time. And the last one looks like invert poop

 

[Mr.September15]

Do bristleworms and peanut worms count as inverts? If not, then my shrimp sure takes a big crap.

 

[SkiFletch]

bristles dont poop like that, peanuts, maybe

 

[Nix]

What else could poop like that?

 

[Nix]

Ok, I'm gunna go with peanut worm.
