I also noticed your alkalinity is at 0. For coral you want it in between 8 and 12. I would pick up some buffer that stabilizes ph at 8.3 or 8.4. What...
Welcome to 3reef.
I would add the ten gallon. At least you can stash some equipment in there. If you do decide to get a 20g later you can make the 10 a fuge....
