I am not sure yet. I will move my clown from my nano and get him a buddy. I might move my yellow watchman goby but I think I might get rid of him. He hides pretty much all the time. I am not sure he is suitable for tile substrate.

Had faith and let the tank run all night. Everything is perfect. Water has cleared alot also.

Pretty excited about getting some nice corals in! Hopefully cycle doesn't take too long

i love the dimensions on this tank! Looks like a nice clean build as well.

As for your hitchhiker, it looks like it could be a digi. Is it stony? Could also be a sponge of some sort... Can you get a clearer picture?

Tanks been running for 5 weeks. Cycle is under way. Nitrite at 0.5ppm now, waiting for it to disappear.

On the fence about what to use for substrate. Having second thoughts on the tile, thinking carbisea Seaflor Special Grade but Kevin at RCA warned that it could trap detrius.

Worried about powerheads blowing live sand all over the place...

at 9" its hard to keep sand from moving with alot of flow. I put a mp10 on a tank that was only 9" deep and could only have it at 40% due to this issue
