It's got a 150w 14k. Thanks to Minh(x2 for the light) and Chris for hookin up the rocks. There's a fishy in there but it's kinda shy so maybe pics later. This isn't my first tank, I had a 90 gal reef over a year ago....so theres a bit of useless information for you. The only corals is a xenia im holding for someone and a random mushy I attached to a rock. Donations welcome!!!!:).

[Tippy5Baller]

Hells yeah I am. I'm learning from the mistakes of m last reef and doing everything right and not rushing anything so this 'ish should look bomb.

Ehehe Yes finally someone who has the balls to put stickers on their tank. I know its a matter of opinion, but I've always wanted to put atleast one sticker on my tank for the hell of it. Cosmetic customization!

Just for you Minh. BTW how is that as far as how high it is above my tank?

[Tippy5Baller]

My pictures suck, but the ten is now a deuce. And It's still barren.

Is that not how you post pics?

[aznshyguycv]

hmm... well maybe you should add more water circulation and a skimmer. Looks great the way it is though. Iunno how you keep it so well with so less equipment. Props

Take the stuff between the " and the ? and put it in


I fixed one for you so you can see an example.

All you need is a small power head and you are set!!

Good job!!

Ps. No need for a skimmer, its better to just do weekly or twice a week water changes in a tank that size. A sump would help with the water stability too, but then you would have to get a skimmer. Keep it simple, thats the best way.

[Tippy5Baller]

Yeah on the ten gallon i never ran a skimmer, just changed the water about every weekend. I do have a prizm backpack skimmer on this one though. I don't really like it that much but it's better than nothing.

thanks for help and input.

Don't listen to him, he doesn't know what hes talking about. Simple is never good :D

Are you dosing anything yet? You won't need to dose much with that water volume but when you get corals they'll appreciate it.
