thats my one concern as well....plan, going for a small "bonsai" scape with pvc and drilled rock...the tank is very small so i will manually clean it...bonus is it doesnt cloud.

off the glass bottom im not i want it to go green and purple....the sides with a blade. this tank is plumbed into another so i doubt algae is going to be much issue, its cleaning the " crud" out is hard part....maybe attack it with a turkey baster whenever i can :P

Haha. Be like buying high end Sps at the jewelers.

the idea is to do a bonsai scape using pvc and drilled rock it will be a mix of favias, chalices and zoos/palys. the tank is tied into another tank which will be in the room behind it. so technically all the work is done by the other tanks, its keeping this little display clean is the trick...so no fish, no heavy feedings...start clean stay clean approach.

since the bottom of the tank will be basically opened all around flow should be pretty strong down there.

im working on a rock scape and some other small odds and ends so wont be running for a bit yet.
