10 gallon AIO build

[FatClownfish]

Hi everyone, I think I've done enough research to start this. I plan on running the tank for a few months since I will be busy doing school. I currently have a old kessil that my uncle gave me, not sure if I should use that or a noopsyche k7 mini. I have both lights and I am not sure which one to use. I bought a jbj 10 gallon nano AIO a while back. I plan to either put 2 ocellaris clownfish or a randall's pistol shrimp pair with another nano fish like a neon blue goby or a firefish. And for the coral is set in stone and the plan will probably change whenever I build the rockwork and how big the corals are.

10g will be too small for clowns. The kessil will work just fine

Take it easy with that A360w, it’s a powerful light.

A360WE is great for LPS and softies. I have 3 supplemented with 4 T5s. Here’s a pic. May help. The figures in WHITE are just the A360WEs at 100% intensity alone.



Don’t need PAR higher than 150 for LPS. You’ll also notice certain areas with higher PAR near the bottom due to light reflecting back against the glass. Anyways, enjoy your project!

Don’t over think it. It’ll never play out like you think it will. Just go with the flow it’ll be less stressful I promise. Have fun
