So I torn it down and cleaned it up. I wanted to do something completely different from the 130G SPS tank. I have always liked the lagoon/ sea grass tanks and thought I would try it out. Its still got a long ways to go but its a start.

 

The tank status are:

 

Oceanic 50G (30x18x21)

4x 24w T5 bulbs with Icecap SLR reflectors

1 Filstar xP2 canister filter

1 Tunze 6045 nanostream powerhead.

20lbs LR

4 sand (mixed sizes)

Well rich I vote seahorse tank. I know of a guy in Corvallis that is selling baby seahorses. Right now he has them on frozen cyclops, but has all of his adult seahorses on frozen mysis that he puts in a shot glass on the bottom of the tank. The seahorses eat right out of the shot glass! It is very relaxing to watch a little group of seahorses that float on by with little effort.

Seahorses should feel right at home in that planted tank.

I'm in the process of setting up a 55 gallon seagrass/seahorse tank right now.

The Thalassia plants that sprouted from the seeds of that pod I was sent a couple of months ago are doing great! When they eventually send out runners, I'll be glad to share some with you.
