Which should I go with???

So I have an option to make something of a 10 gal nano.

I have the funds for lighting, and excellent filtration

Should I make a nano 10 gallon that is themed for a certain coral?

Or should I make a nano planted tank with c02 injection, soil, drift wood etc...?

Im leaning towards the themed coral tank. I wanted to do like a nice gsp carpet along the bottom with branches of xenia reaching out above it and keep maybe one really nice looking angel...I saw this theme as a larger display tank in a store and fell in love with its beauty and simplisity...

Whats 3reef's opinion?

 

Sponge bob!!
I'm just saying..;D

I would go the coral way also IMO.

 

Nano Reef : 1
Planted FW: 0

 

i'd say guppy auqarium. I've always wanted one, but that's just me. i've always loved guppies.

 

Coral is my vote

 

Go with the nano tank.
I would go with pastel rainbow colored zoanthids and create a canvas of beautiful and vibrant colors and contrasts to wow the senses.
Compliment this scenario with something like a Bangaii Cardinalfish!
Exquisite!

 

I would go coral as well.
The only suggestion would be a 20 long instead of a 10. Still really cheap tank (I bought mine for under $30 at petsmart), and it would give you a LOT more flexibility with aquascaping and maybe fish.

 

OOOOOOOOOOOO, im sold! haha
Thanks guys

 

I dont have room for a 20 long or a 20 tall. I already have a 20 tall reef that is doing very very well. I wanted something smaller to help master the art of nano tanks haha

 

Ah I see. I have my 20L that I'm making into a sump/fuge and I keep looking at it thinking it would be an awesome nano tank :. Its become my own personal problem that consumes my thoughts and makes me force it on other people
