Alrighty here we go...
I am planning on a 29 pallon mixed reef with a 6inch DSB. This is going to be as basic as possiable. Being as this will be my first tank to care for completely on my own I am going with out alot of the big gadgets.
1) 29 gallon used tank w/ stand and canopy
2) 150watt double ended metal halide w/ 2x 55watt actinic pc's-traded 2 clams that had outgrown the main tank for the light fixture.
3) Since there will be no sump, flow will provided by 802 powerhead and
if needed a Iwaki md-20rlxt- freebie left over from the 105 gallon we
took down.
4) If needed CPR backback since I will not be running a skimmer unless
absoutly needed.
Rock/corals:
1) 25-30pds liverock from the main tank and sump- freebie (extra rock
leftover from the aquascaping, due to my landslide)
2) Many different zoanthid frags that I have been collecting/trading for
the last couple weeks, also zoa frags from my main colonies in the
main tank.
3) Xenia frags from main tank and Anthilia frag from wiskey recvd in trade
4) Brown bodied green polyp frag Acro frag from main tank- freebie due to
aquascaping
5) Neon green Pavona frag from main tank- freebie due to aquascaping
6) many other frags to be listed at a later date as I see how they are
recovering from aquascaping/fragging/Q.T
Fish:
1) Nemo & Dorie - J/k
1) Cleaner shrimp
2) small
copperband butterfly (depending if the fish is eating @ the store
and the fish's overall health)
3) if available a
blue spotted jawfish, if not any jawfish will do
4) Laboute's Fairy Wrasse (If my lfs owner friend comes through, if not
another wrasse of some sort TBA.)
5) assortment of snails( ie: turbo,astrea,bumblebee )
Pics will be to follow as I am currently setting everything up and cleaning up the area where the tank will be going (Our house is being remodeled). I just need to meet the deadline. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to let me know. Remember this is my very first time doing a tank on my own and I might have lot's of questions. I'm trying not to involve my husband or wiskey...this will be all me...gulp...ok, here we go!
Please excuse the bad grammer and spelling (it's been a long day @ work
