grassi Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I just got this tank from Kendraroo. It is a nice 12x14x8 acrylic all in one rimless tank. The display area holds only 3 gallons of water, while the filtration area is huge compared to it. I plumbed it with a Maxi Jet 600 and a 1/2 in bulkhead. Planning to run skimmerless (only surface skimming) with some cheatomorpae and live rock in the filter. I'm planning to go for 20% weekly water changes. I'm probably gonna go with leds: either Elvic par 38 or Maxspect. There will be an ato device and a 50w thermometer. No powerheads, the MJ 600 is good enough as for the first water test. Must be [language filter] silent and safe because it is gonna be in the living room or baby room. I'm still torn between bottomless (edited: barebottom)or black sand. There will probably be a "bonsai" rockscaping with a few corals and sexy shrimps. Not sure about the corals, but for sure there will be my mini carpet anemones.

jgf86123 Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I like Jon's idea Alex, but, on top of the sexy shrimp, you gotta run a couple of clown gobies, we prefer the green ones, that what I was gonna do with that thing LOL. 2 clown gobies, and lots of high end zoos :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
