Hi all...
I wanted to share my new nano...my first attempt...
Tank: 10 gallon standard
Lighting: 36" Corallife ( 2 x 96 watt (one 10K and 1 50/50)) over it
Filtration: 30 pounds LR, Emperor 300 with LR/macro (filled with sand/live rock as mini fuge and for water flow with acrylic glued to deflect flow horizontally
Substrate: 2-3" aragonite sugar fine sand (for nitrate reduction)
Livestock: yellow citron gobey, neon blue gobey, purple sea rod, yellow & red sea rod, tubastrea, zo's, purple shrooms, green monti, xenia
Feeding: Cyclopeeze, flake and DTs (5cc) 2x/day
Stats: Ammonia=0, Nitrite=0, Nitrate=0, pH=8.2, Ca=520(working on it), PO4=0, Specific Gravity=1.025
Maintenance: 80% or 8 gallons weekly using water from reef, FW Ro topoff ~500cc/day
I need more snails me thinks cause the denitrifying (?cyano) bubbles coat everything in daytime, despite pretty good water flow...i'm new to the nano stuff.

Any feedback and/or criticism accepted, thanks
