set this up on the weekend

10g
6.5 lbs of LR
10lbs dead sand
100w heater
whisper 5-15 HOB with live rubble
Koralia nano powerjet
2 x 23w mini compact 6700k (will be changing to the 50/50 bulbs...

I'd like to keep mushrooms and zoas...Any suggestions on how to improve this setup?

I woukld move the Koralia powerhead up higher and have it break the surace and sweep across the tank.

If your going to get Frags instead of Colonies, I would suggest another 4-6 lbs of choice live rock. If your adding colonies then by the time you get about 6 or so tangerine sized colonies in there then you should have about the right amount of live rock.

Where's the Clean Up Crew? You didnt mention any and I dont see any...did I miss them? If you dont have any...I would suggest about 6-8 Banded Trochus or Astreas, 5-6 Cerith or Nassarious snails, a shrimp such as a Skunk Cleaner, Peppermint or Blood Shrimp. If you can scam on a real small Brittle Starfish that would br pretty awsome.

Other than that looks like your off to a promising start!!!

Great start. I agree, more LR needs added somehow, but like the SW tank moto states, slow and steady wins the race. Looks like you will have a winner.
