Now that I'm back, trying to stock some corals in my new tank. Have a few items from aquariums past I'd love to trade... Corals Or if you have some lighting - I need LED's for a little 6g tank 10" x 10". If you'r up for trades - let me know what you have and we'll work something from there. Eheim Professional 2224 Canister filter - handles up to about 65g tank. CPR Bak-Pak 2R+ Reef Ready Protein Skimmer. It will need a maxi-jet pump but it's an awesome skimmer and get's great ratings. I do have pic's if you'd like me to post or send. Thanks!!! Matt

Thanks! I'll let you know what I pull it together - tank finish cycling this morning!

it's 12"H X 10"W X 10"W and thanks!

Been a very long time since I was on here, but finally have a new tank up and running. It's only a 6g nano, but it's a start. I know this is a the main tank thread but I really wanted some opinions from the broader group on stocking (it won't take much)! As with any tank though, it'll be swapped out with something bigger down the road. I've built the following config scenario's that I want thoughts on (good, bad, no way in hell!)...etc. Or if there are other thought's, Please let me know! Obviously want coral too - but budget has to ease into it all..... Thanks for all the thoughts and opinions! Config 1 Firefish Flaming prawn goby OR Hi Fin Red Banded Goby Pistol shrimp * Be nice to have some swimmers in there - but too small for any swimmers? Config 2 Firefish Neogonodactylus wennerae ( Caribbean Rock Mantis Shrimp ) * Interesting tank BUT – it’s glass which the Mantis could break, sand is shallow (only about an inch deep) and the may not be a good idea to have a firefish as it could very well be eaten. Right?? Config 3 Firefish Hawaiian Harlequin Shrimp Pair * Another cool mix scenario. - M

Ahh no worries - He mended up awesome, but man he did a number on his leg - the elbow socket was busted in three places.. Screws and pins later, he's the bionic dog And now - that sounds about right, even missed the smell of the saltwater!

thanks all! i didn't forget how much i loved the hobby, but had to block it out for a while I'll post some pics once I get it populated and some lighting on there.

6yrs ago after selling off all my tanks to fund my pup's broken leg surgery - I've got water in a new tank! Was a long hiatus, but I was gifted a struggling tank and thought what better time. It was a fresh water with a snail population that was way out of control, got the the remaining stock into the hands of a new home, cleaned the tank up and ready for the reef. Pulled the existing light and filter. Was debating on doing a skimmer at all, but had to get around oxygenating the water well so and the skimmer I found seemed to fit perfect so solved the issue and then some. Current setup: Hydor Slim Skim, Sicce Voyager pump, Cobalt Neo-Therm 25W heater, 10lbs live rock and a few pounds sand. Need to get a lighting solution but it's currently cycling so I have a little bit of time... not much though; seems to be hitting the ground running as the nitrate spike is coming down. Going to work on the rock a bit, in a a 5g tank, space is used up quick - one of the upper rocks is a bit too large. Super clean install and equip will support a bit larger tank down the road.
