smallest pump you have I used rio 90s. This should work... I don't know much personally about the algae scrubbers but I don't think they scale that well for nanos.

I don't have an AP24 but if it's anything like the other all in ones just take any chamber and put the light diffuser in there to set media on top of it.

Reactor. I just unhooked it tonight.

Ouch. I bet that wasn't cheap.

Good plan. :cool1:

I use light diffuser for any racks as it can be cut with a utility knife easily. Most fish people call it egg crate but you can buy it in any home store labeled as "light diffuser".

*cough cough* if you have any rics to frag I'll trade you something. :lol: I told you that tank was AWESOME, I love the setup.

Yep! Love the corals! I also like bubble corals and frogspawn corals, just give a couple inches room around them for sweeper tentacles if you choose to add some.

Nice. I love having options when I get live stock.

Just to clarify when I said you can add the CUC anytime, I meant any time *after* the cycle levels out.

I had that happen to one of mine once when I moved it. I thought I cut all the fibers but apparently I didn't. I was nervous as all get out as I thought I had basically killed my clam. Thankfully it pulled through. FYI, I was informed that crocea and maxima clams are rock dwellers. When...

Keep an eye out for whelks and those clam eating snails. Nice mantle! If and when I get off my lazy butt and install my MH I want to put in a clam in my nano (yeah I know, but I do have the 90 gallon if the clam doesn't like the tank).

Weekly water changes if I am doing things the way I should, but sometimes I do them every other week. As far as giving the corals things I have ricordias which have mouths. So every once in a while (1-2 times a month) I'll give them a mysis shrimp. For my 90 gallon tank I feed a small bit of...

No problem. I don't know why they would advise not having a CUC until after your fish and corals. You can add them at any time really. Most people like them in first to clean up all the algae blooms that occur during cycling. The longer you wait the better with a salt water tank, but 5...

LOL Don't worry too much. You will know if you have too much light. You will see your coral hiding ALL the time if it is too much light. And after all, they adapt quite well. If you like it, that is all that really matters. It's your tank! :) Any pictures?

You're welcome. :lol:

Nice! Is that clown overly aggressive? I have two ocellarus clownfish and a green bubble tip anemone. Silly me didn't do my research about ocellarus not favoring green bubble tips. Oh well, they are all beatiful!

That sounds a bit high on light, but not detrimental in my opinion. How tall is the tank. If the tank is 2 foot or taller than I wouldn't worry at all! For the lunar lighting if it is too bright for your fish try covering up one or two LEDS with a piece of elecrical tape.

I love the coloration in that mantle. Do you do anything special for your clams?

:) I'm loving it! Any close ups?
