Separation 20g

[alanto100]

This is my first saltwater tank. The tank and stand are very old, probably older than me. It was a freshwater not too long ago. Current plans are to add a 10g sump w/ algae scubber.

Current Equipment: 20g tank, Cascade 100 HOB filter, CPR BakPak protein skimmer w/ Rio 600, Aquaclear 70 powerhead, Penguin 550powerhead, Current Orbit Marine LED

~38lbs of live rock
~20lbs crushed coral mix. Learned crushed coral wasn't the best a little too late.

Whole setup



First corals

Not sure what that is. Let me know.

looks to be a sponge bud ;] 2nd pic

don't expose to air and make sure it doesn't shrink

If it stays alive you have a healthy tank

oh & +1 on orbit LED's

Looks like you are starting off pretty good. Personally, i would minimize how muxh equipment is viewed in the display tank. It shouldnt overpower the livestock. Thats just my two cents.

Other than that, im sure its going to be an awesome tank.
