Breif tank history: I started out with a 37 AGA tank with 40 lbs LR some crushed Coral and 30" 2x65 watt PC. I didnt do any research before buying the tank or lighting really so after about a month I was already un happy with the set up. I then decided to keep the lighting and drop down to a 20 long so that the lighting would actually be enough to keep all the things I wanted. Along with the tank I also didnt do any reasearch when I picked out my protien skimmer, so I ended up with a seaclone 100. After 3 months of having this system and filling it up with tons of mushrooms and zoanthids I realized that I wanted to start over and try to do it right. This is when I started my current system. It has been up and running now for about a month.

LR: 30 lb fiji 15 lb base rock (looks almost like tonga shelf)
Sand: 40 lb Carib sea

Livestock:
5 Mexican Turbo Snails
1 False Clown
