New here...

[Trogdor]

Just wanted to give a small introduction. I just started my first SW tank a few weeks ago. It is a 20g Long and is cycled and partially stocked with cleanup crew. I have kept FW tanks for several years and aways had an itch for SW and i finally took the leap. Well I guess that's all I have for now...carry on

Hi Trogdor and welcome to Nanotank.com :gh:

I have a 20 as well. It a great size and I think you'll be happy with the L. I have a H and I wish I had the L. So much more room and shallower so your reef is closer to the light. Keep us updated!

here are some photos of the tank...it's about 4 weeks old
BTW...I have new lights coming Friday so the NO 15w lights are heading to storage.

[djconn]

Cool. What kind of lights did you end up with?

 

[Trogdor]

Satellite dual 65w.

Should be here on Friday. Can't wait to see how much better everything will look. Not so enthusiatic about the electric bill for Dec tho....lol

Nice lights. Very similar to what I've got on my 20H. I bet you don't even notice the diff. in your bill. PCs aren't too bad with that

I received the lights today and boy do they make a difference. I spotted a few ricordia buds that I couldn't see with my other lights. The actinic lights are amazingly blue. I give the lights 2 thumbs up...

Free hitchhiker ricordias...got to love that!

 

[Sugar Magnolia]

no kidding! post up some new pics with the new lights when you can.

 

[Trogdor]

I will have some pics up tomorrow night or Sunday as we have a wedding to photograph this weekend and batteries are charning and CF cards are formatted.

Here are some new photos. I rearranged some of the rocks for the clowns to hid under.

very nice start there, that your freebie ric?

 

[Trogdor]

Thanks...that bud wasn't the 'freebie'. I found about 3 on the underside of the rock that it came on along with 3 featherdusters...hehe Those 3 are mostly white right now and pretty small. I have found that my nass. snails are either reproducing or i picked up some baby hitchhikers. I found 2 babies crawling around last night.
