15 gallon nano build! Reef cleaner unboxing

well ive ran out of room for more salty stuff i want! so what should i do?

ahhh thats right upgrade that little thing to a 15 long!

its a 24'" by 12" by 12" and ready to get wet!

plans are to have a lots of softies and lps an a couple fish.

for now i just have a heater and a circulation pump. i hope to add a sump in the near future!

also i still need to get my LED setup. for now im using a flouresent light to get through the cycle. i was planning on going with this-http://www.aquastyleonline.com/products/Aquarium-12-x-3-watts-DIY-LED-Kit.html

ill be using the rock from my 4 gallon with coral on it after the cycle has completed

today i got dry rock and live sand put in.

im going to put a chunk of brine shrimp in to help the cycle along!

hope to have a successful tank as my 4 has gone! these small tanks arnt as tough to do as people say they do!

Your clownfish is like "yeah baby" in his best Austin Powers voice.

Hope he/she gets to enjoy the new digs when it's cycled.

 

looks great, hope you have a top on you tank your clown is like i cant wait and might jump tanks. lol

 

haha yeah they both have tops! im excited to get him out of there and get him/her a friend!

 

Congrats on the upgrade! I'm sure it's going to look fantastic!

 

i hope it looks good!

what should i do about stocking?

1 more clown? then anything else?
6 line?

 

make sure since you have a clown you get an elephant fish

then you can have a circus

 

haha thats awesome sky! haha i would get one!

 

i wish that was a real fish its freaking awsome looking lol

 

yeah but if it grew to the size of an elephant we would need a bigger tank than the 15! ha but it would be sweet to see one!
