Description: I've had this tank for a little over 2 years. Its a simple 10 gallon AGA with a an AquaClear 110 on the back that serves as a hang on sump/refugium. In the AC110 I have Caulerpa, Cheato, and a Sapphire Aquatics Skimmer, which does an awesome job skimming. As for lighting I have a Current USA 2X40 watt Orbit fixture that does a fine job providing my corals with light. The AC110 also provides all the flow I need and I have no other circulation other than it.
Advice: Start slow, don't rush the process of cycling, etc. Do not over feed and always keep up with your routine.
Fish Kept: I once had a Bicolor Blenny that decided one day that he was going carpet surfing. To replace him I bought a Dwarf Spotted Hawkfish. I also have a Yellow Watchman Goby paired with a Tiger Pistol Shrimp. Inverts: Astrea Snails Nassarius Snails Margarita Snails Pistol Shrimp Scarlett Reef Hermits Dwarf Blue Legged Hermits
Corals/Plants: Yellow Polyps Green Star Polyps Torch Coral Purple Plate Coral Xenia Caulerapa Cheatomorpha
Tank Size: 10 gallons
