EWWW... YES YES YES.. Oh there like little monsters you see in the movies.

I don't have many inhabitants currently. I'm slowly building. I only have one little damsel and a yellow goby that refuses to move from the cave its found. Other than that, I have one hawaiian zebra hermit crab, scarlet hermit crab, emerald crab, red crab.

My tank is a 15 gallon Via Aqua, I have lots of hope and excitement for my tank.

looks good!

i would not put any more fish in there, that is about what that water column can support bio-load wise.

just keep it simple, and remember to clean that filter weekly.

Thanks Geoff for all the great input.

I'm looking to replace the damsel with another fish. My husband has a 60 gallon salt that he would welcome my lil guy into.
Right now I only have some mushrooms, a seabae anenome, a sun anenome, and some star polyops. Can you tell me what other anenomes/corals or other inhabitants would be good in my lil tank? I love this tank. Its small and compact. Unlike my husbands tank which is so much larger, takes so much more to build it up the way he wants it. But then again thats the fun of this hobby isn't it.

They have a great sub-forum here called Nano just for people like you with 20 gallon or less tanks Ckreef kind of heads it up.
Those guys can give you all of the in's and out's of smaller tanks.

Not trying to run you off or anything, It's just those nano tanks have special needs and things to look out for.

Take a look here. http://www.thereeftank.com/forums/fo...?s=&forumid=97
