| Re: Confused on starting a Nano Ok, everyone has spoken good word, but I`ll speak my mind too. Based on experience a dozen snails total with no margaritas ( don`t do much of anything ) and half a dozen hermit crabs are the best clean up crew. Like they said with the fish volume, not length, a pair of clowns would be fine. So would one. Could add a goby or even damsel with it ( witch is my setup, a clown and damsel ). Just add a shrimp and enjoy. Far as protein skimmers, you do need one and there is no good ones on the market for your tank size. PM me for My DIY protein skimmer plans. Lighting: PCs would be perfect. Maybe in the 45-65 watt range. I use an Aquaclear and the return from my protein skimmer for flow, works great. I also have a 15w light that runs 2 hours before/after main lights on in the morinig. |
