    Well, when I went to the LFS today to pick up more Turbo Snails, I saw this pretty cool 5g tall tank. I really wondered what I could do with it. Once I'm pretty close to finishing my 55g Reef, I would like to make a small reef in this 5g. What do you guys think about stocking in it. Also, do they even make the proper lighing for reefs in such a small tank?

    Yeah you can use PC lighting since it is so small. You will be able to have various softies zoas etc... I would stay away from the fish though. Just make such a small area for the fish especially when you have the live rock in there. But yeah mostly just do softies everything else will be so packed in tight that the corals will be stinging each other
