      Jesse’s Tide Pool Reef

      Decided to challenge myself and see what I can do with this tank.
      Obviously marine tank
      I have no time for freshwater

      Still thinking on what to do with it lol.

      The back part is 13 gallons
      And the lagoon area is 10gallons
      32”x22”18”H

      I was thinking mostly crustaceans
      Some rock flower anemones
      Maybe some acans,blastos, ricordias, mushrooms
      Maybe some gobys

      Idk yet

      The back
      I have no clue

      Maybe you guys can give some ideas💡

      Filtration will be very simple
      Has a chamber on the side with the return pump
      And some media chamber

      There’s a waterfall on the left corner that has some silicone
      I’m debating on leaving it or taking it off.
      & should I paint the back black or leave it clear

      I have it running with fresh water/vinegar

      Here are some pics

      That's a pretty cool lil tank. Maybe some dwarf sea horses in the back with some macros and gorges.

      Where the hell did you get that tank? That's a sick little tank.
      I'd black out the back so the focus is on the tank and the flower nems would pop. Maybe some sexy shrimp, green clown goby , Catalina goby

      Catalina is a cold water species. That would be a crazy temp tank, stocked with nps

      Seen this a few weeks ago on YouTube awesome little tanks! Rock flower nems and shrooms for sure. Blue spotted jaw fish maybe?


      Take out the fake waterfall add real live rock structure would look dope!

      Hehehe^^^^
      I just noticed the gyre, at first I thought it was a lil underwater light. Awesome.
      I also agree with hector, remove the fake waterfall and add some live rock w/ maybe a small mangrove.

      That sure is a sick tank there bud! Though I do kinda dig the clear back I agree with Mike that you should black it out and get more pop out of things. If you Marco some smaller pieces together you could do a sick liverock structure for the waterfall...lotta out the box potential here, perfect for you of all people haha!!!

      Keep us posted with this thing

      Jesse’s Tide Pool 🌊Reef

      Well I sold both my biocube and IM30g but kept the livestock from the 30
      So I had no choice but to transfer to this one

      I accidentally did not leave enough room for the lights to hang on through the back 🤬

      So I had no choice but to put them from the sides of the front.
      Ohh well I’ll move it when I do a water change.

      Here’s a pic from an hour a go
      Livestock is settling well
