      Soo my bad luck with clowns continues further.
      In my short time in the hobby (8 months) I've gone through 3 pairs of clowns. 2 pairs died. I gave a pair of healthy clowns away to get a new pair that died days later, those clowns are still alive in my friends tank.

      But my davincis didn't make it. I noticed one had a few white spots, he died and then the next morning other was dead :'( so for the sake of clown fish safety i think I'm gonna stay away from them for now.
      Now I have an empty rbta

      Cuz in such a small tank the parameters have to be dead on or else it's going to stress the shiat out of them eventually leading to ich (white spots) etc etc...

      How long has the tank been up? Parameters good?

      Good luck on your venture!

      I'll take the rbta if you wanna get rid of it..trade for zoas?

      Parameters are good. I just do water changes with water from my main tank and those params are good also. And it's been like 2 weeks about.

      Thanks man!
      And we will see about the rbta. Only good looking thing in the tank haha

      So I've stayed away from fish in this tank.
      But I got a peppermint shrimp from a friend and threw him in here as well as a cool slug.
      They coexist pretty good so just leaving them for now and enjoying it.
      Added a few corals. Trumpet coral, single head green with purple top frogspawn, some cool zoas I got from shaun(Ohio streets) when I bought his 50 cube. And some gsp and a few zoas.

      I also upgraded filtration from a tetra whisper to a ac 70 (I think) and it fit perfectly so more water volume and space to put chemi pure and filter floss and heater.
      And also upgraded the light. Got a wave point 8 watt led. Has 2 whites rest blues. Love the look. Just letting everything runs it's course and can't wait to see it grow

      that's small, looks nice! I am guessing you don't have auto top off or anything right? how often do you change the water out? it would be cool if there was a way to make it circulate with your bigger tank, maybe use the same sump or something. then you wouldn't have to worry too much.

      Thanks man!
      And no ato, I need to figure something for when I go on vacations. The thing loses water quickly.
      I change water about every 2-3 days. About one cup of water does the trick.
      I've been trying to think of a way to actually do that. It sits next to my main display so it's gone through my head, plus only thing I'll have on the tank is the light so it'll give it a better look. Plus my dad complains about the electricity bill so if I can cut out a few plugs it'd be great. Plus with it going through the big tank I would have to worry about water loss as much and it would keep params more stable.

      Please stay away from fish in this tank.... It's cruel on not ok in any way. The pics you are posting are pure blue and almost impossible to dicifer what is what. Pack all the coral you want in there.... But fish don't belong in these tanks. I'll give you coral if it means you don't house anymore fish

      Yeah I'm staying away from fish. It's hard to keep them alive an not that's not fair if they just die.
      But I'm not sure how to take good pics. The lights are really blue idk how other take good pics.
