    The Rio skimmer works awesome ! It blows up when I feed my sun polyps tiger prawns. lol ! My heater is set at like 72 degrees just in case . I am paronoid about it dipping down more than getting to hot. it stays at 78.5 on its own though. Thanks for the complements ! ;D

    Aqua boy You should probably get somthing bigger for a 20 gallon. The rio nano is only rated 20 gallons. It moves water EXCELLENT for me . (you know 3 gallons and all ) ::) I can't imagine it being enough for a 20 gallon tank though. Good luck !

    Why, my GSM Clown host my hammer and my frogspawn depending on which is bigger at the time, has since I got him. Hasn't hurt either him or them and it looks really cool.

    I was thinking of a rainford goby , but I have a stary blenny in there right now and that is enough for now. My tue perc was stressing out the hammer frag I have in there it kept sucking in and wouldn't fully extend. so I just took him out. I will try and get a picture of my blenny when he pops out.:)

    THAT... IS...AWESOME

    makes me want to set one up... how the heck do you do water changes though? with a turkey baster?

    is this just a pico-aquarium (sp)? I haven't seen any 3g around here that have lighting that can sustain coral yet so just curious
