Hey guys

This is my 5 gal bedside tank

Lighting:
5 White and Blue Ecopico strips -By ecoxotic
1 White Strip (refuge)

Light spectrum: 12K White & 453nm Actinic Blue
Total watts: 9 watt

Fliters:
2 Aqua clear 20's

1# bioMAX and Carbon (any suggestions if i should switch it up

2# Refuge- Cheato and any over macro's i can get a hold of

Need to find some nice rock now if any one has 1 pound of LR they don't want i'll buy it.

My plans for this tank is to fill it with the "weed" corals Stuff people have over growing in their tanks
-mushrooms - kenya tree- pulsing x's- etc.

Sorry i would not accept aiptasia anemone's because too small to host my clown :wink:

If I asked for 300$ for this set up (mostly coral) excluding the fish and the dendros is that too much ?
