My 36 gal Corner

Well, i beat my hair algae problem.. and finally got around to taking some more tank pics...

My inhabitants are as follows:

2 clowns(one b/w occ, one occ), Carrie and Terri, respectively
"Sixy" the sixline
Patrick the bubble tip brittle star
Coco Worm - over 12" long!
Zoas
Mushrooms
Large torch
8 hermits
2 Mexican turbos
15 astrea snails

Equipment as follows:

2x65W PC lighting.. 1 10K, 1 actinic
Fluval 205 cannister running foam, carbon, nitrate sponge
Berlin Air-lift 60 - sucks
2x powerheads

The tank is open top. There is no sump....I somehow have been able to keep the nitrates at 0, and i am a little lazy so water changes only happen about 1x month. This is my first set up, and i have learned a lot and i think sometime in the next year or two i will upgrade to a 90 or 120.... Alright.. on to the pics

 

CONGRATULATIONS. Many a tank has been nuked because of HA. K+ for winning the fight!

 

More Pics!

 

Thank ya... yeah that stuff is UGLY!! but now its gone.. and i wish i could say I did it... but i really think half of it was due to my tank maturing.

 

Either way, it was there, and now its not ;D.

 

lol, yeah, most importantly

 

So i am thinking about my next coral... I know my lighting is crap, but i dont want to upgrade it now cause i think i am upgrading tanks in the not too distant future. So, do you guys think i could keep a brain under these lights. The online places all say that the brain and the torch need about the same amt of light.. My torch is doing great under the lights. So what do ya think?

 

You could go with a frogspawn. They're pretty cool. Your clowns would probably host it too.

 

i really like frogspawn.... i wasnt sure if they would make it under my lights tho... but i may have to try one.
