SnooknRedz's 20 Gallon(SHUT DOWN)

This is the start of my 20g FOWLR.

This is my first ever saltwater aquarium. I began this tank Sept 9th. I plan on making this into a full reef hopefully in the future, but I'm just learning the ropes with keeping an aquarium for now. I'd like to say that I've learned 99% of the stuff I know about aquariums are because of you 3reefer's and I'm still learnin' Thanks guys!!

Looks great! YMG have a lot of personality.

 

She sure does. I cant wait to see how much bigger shell get, shes pretty tiny.

 

Looks great, congrats

 

Hey man the tanks looking great! Also your right we are running pretty similar set ups haha how often are you doing water changes and how much are you changing?

 

I havnt done one yet. to be honest. i just top off with ro when it needs it. i should prob do one soon tho =]

 

If you hope to keep corals and fish alive you'll need to get into a routine of bi/weekly water changes. Smaller tanks are alittle harder to keep as param swings are greater because of evap and nutrient import. Also it will need daily top offs since only H2O evaps raising your salinity. Good start.
