    My punchbowl nano entry:

    I thought it would be cool to have a shallow tank with mini anemones and ricordia. I thought a punchbowl would be cool and set out to find one that was big and shallow. I looked at the local Goodwill stores in the area ("home of the small, tall punchbowl") with no luck and found one on Craigslist that was what I was looking for. It was a little pricey, but it included a glass ladle to help with the waterchanges! My list:

    1) 4 gallon punchbowl $30

    2) Hydor 180 pico powerhead $20.99

    3) Rock from an old tank and sand I had laying around

    4) Tetra 25w heater I had laying around

    5) Maxspect Razor Nano I already had

    Total cost so far: $50.99

    It took about 2.5 gallons of water to fill it up & now I just need to wait for the sand to settle. I'm hoping for some nice colors from maxi-minis and rock flower anemones (anyone have some to sell?). I love how it looks-- I just wish I could hide the heater better.

    10/10 recommend the synergy overflow. It’s awesome and absolutely silent. It’s so quite that sometimes I have to check to make sure the tank is still running lol. It’s a little spendy but can be used again and again as you change tanks or upgrade. :)

    Great looking tank so far. You picked out a amazing pair of clowns. 

    Thanks! You guys had a nice group to choose from. I almost grabbed the Midnight one instead. If i could have 3 in one tank i probably would have :). 

    Really liked that Aussie gold Torch you had too, almost walked out with it but my wallet said nooooo. :nooo:
