BeckyC's specs


I have 2 20 gallon reef tanks.



Tank #1: Current Satellite lighting. CPR Aquatic BakPak skimmer, CPR Aquafuge with 24w lighting...plenty of chaeto. 1 HK1 and 1 HK nano.

Livestock: yellow watchman and a purple firefish. Skunk cleaner. Mostly zoanthid based.

Over 40 lbs LR, 2-3 inch sand bed.

Will add more pics later.

Tank #2: Same lighting and skimmer, powerheads, but with a 10 gallon sump, 18w of light for chaeto.

This tank seems to be more frag based...I've never been happy with FTS. But I often like looking at it from the side if I am on the couch.



Also zoanthid and shroom based.

The inhabitants: 2 blue neon gobies...



2 randalls shrimp and a yashia...




2 bozo peppermint shrimp.

Water source/filtration:

Nice to see your tanks, Becky! I love those yashia gobies.. is that the shrimp's burrow.. the pile of rocks?

Paul B's tank is now gobies only.. he has some pretty cool looking fish. I think that's a wonderful idea for your 50.. there are so many different-looking kinds/shapes/sizes. I think I'd like a Citron goby here one of these days.

Glad you are here! Insert a you-know-what joke here

Barb, yep. After a year I put GARF Grunge in, they used it to line their tunnels. Nifty little critters.

Nice looking setups. I really like the Yashia Goby, that is a cool looking little fish.

I wish you continued success with everything.

I understand completely after serving 10 years in the Marine Corps myself. Thanks for your service, or your support of the one who does serve.
