10g standard (20") tank
Fluval 204 (primarily for circ, maybe a tray or 2 of filter)....I know its a little less than ideal, 180gph
standard heater....letters worn off, but used it in my 45 so should be adequate


Soooo, I need a light....was thinking Coralife 36w 20".....Maybe go to a 24" because I may decide to goto a 20g tank instead.....but I can cycle my rock and stuff in the 10 and decide from there....Anyone want to sell a light? or tank? haha

Lastly, this tank will house a bunch of low maintenance coral, mushroom, a few crabs (thinkin pom pom), shrimp, snails and for swimmers a clown (how original!) and likely a boxfish.....very minimalist....

thoughts? suggestions? got stuff to get rid of (including rock/sand)? let me know!

Hoping as I get more knowledgeable I can help out some too.....
sounds like a good start. one thing i have to say unfortunately is that their really isn't any boxfish that would bot outgrow your tank.(at least that i know of)

take a look at the Hagen GLO 24 inch T5HO fixtures. We sell them at elite aquatics and they are awesome quality! i'm using one for the reef im currently building actually, and i love it so far.
