My 5.5g

Just thought I would share my 5.5g with everyone:)

Your tank is spectacular. Is it just a reef tank no fish? What are your tank specs.

Awesome! Same question as PF -- any fish?

5.5g. Aquaclear 70 fuge, stealth heater and fishneedit.com 70w halide.

Nope no fish, gonna be adding a clam in there too. Requires daily dosing but its worth it

An electric fire scallop would look great in there! Too bad it needs so much space ]:

And they die in captivity 100% of the time

No skimmer? How does that work for you.

Poor scallops

Works great

You don't need a skimmer on a tank with no fish, a skimmer would do more bad than good in a tank this small anyway.

I am thinking about getting a little green banded goby though. My cheato keeps my nitrates at 0 all the time.

Ya too bad, they are neat critters.

Oh i see. Thats nice to know. I'm assuming thats only because your corals, nems, etc. are all photosynthetic.

I do feed my dunans (and other LPS) a lot though. So the cheato does absorb those nutrients

Can cheato survive coldwater?

Dont think so. Although I think there is a temperate species.

I will have to find that species. What is your coral list?

Umm hammer, frogspawn, candycane, and duncan for LPS.

SPS: Green acro, multicolor acro, pink birdsnest, blue tenius (spelling could be wrong), orange monti cap, superman monti, hydnophora, tan digitata and orange montipora digitata.

Softies: Green rhodactis shrooms, blue ricordea, orange ricordea yuma, grandis palys, orange people eaters, fire and ice zoa, some unnamed zoa, more people eaters (I forget the name), blue clove polyps, radioactive green zoa. I think thats it.

I will be getting some nuclear greens, purple deaths, darth mauls, tubbs blues, and a chalice next week. I also plan on buying some clams

Clams . Tell me how that goes.

What kind of bulb have you got?

Me or him?

And you guys should see Jamies tropical tank, its pretty awesome. Better than mine lol

Him...

Does it have it posted? ( I used 'it' because Jamie is a boys and girls name and I'm too lazy to go and check its profile)

Jamie is a guy lol. And yes on nano reef but not on here. We could ask him when he gets back on I suppose.

Good to know.

Yeah.

Yeah i thought he took down his tropical or something just because it wasn't in his signature.

That is a gorgeous tank.

He can also take good pictures of his :|.
