Well here’s my intro into the hobby. I started off a few months ago with the fluval evo 13.5, some dry rock and carbsea live sand. After cycling I’ve began to add the inhabitants.

Livestock:
Yellow watchman goby
Longfin clown pair
Target dragonet
Cleaner shrimp
Orange mushroom
Unknown brain coral
Rasta Zoa
Unknown paly

I have a custom lid, 1st chamber filter basket, full refuge in chamber 2 with a grow light. Return pump and heater in chamber 3. It’s being lit by a ai prime and I also have a Nero 3 in there.

I know it’s been done 1000 times but I wanted to share and also have a page to keep track of my progress.

I was looking at something similar just yesterday. Seems like a good option to increase real estate on a nano tank. Do you move it to clean the glass around it?

Loving your tank and choice of corals

I don’t take them out or anything. I found it easier to just be careful with the scraper around them. My snails also love to hang around them so the glass stays surprisingly clean around them

Little update:

I took out the 3 single rock frag mounts as well as the small one I had in the sand and moved them into my Waterbox. Besides that everything else is the same

@Shnetts some questions if I may. Who did your custom lid? What app are you using for the AI equipment? Is your 6line mean, if not you could have a female? Looking good, Im following.

Of course. My lid was made by KreativeReefer. I actually just upgraded it to a different one with a cutout for an auto feeder. I’ve yet to see my six line be mean in the slightest, this may be because my female clown is bigger and is an absolute ******. But I do have a YWG that went into complete hiding around the time it was added so I’m not sure if that’s why.

Edit: I use Mobius for my AI stuff, I used to use the AI app but for some odd reason the pumps were just always acting weird, since switching zero issues.
