![]() I was going to make my 24"x24"x12" half cube into a sps & clam tank, but after talking to Harvey, I'm seriously thinking about turning it into an anemone tank instead.
Here's my rough (very rough) plan on this tank. Lighting: Single 250w SE 14000k bulb (running on a HQI ballast) in a PFO Pendant Filtration: ~30-40 lbs of LR. 17g sump at half capcacity, and a 15 gallon fuge off on the side with a 6 inch deep sandbed (with jawfish), and macros. The clams will also be housed in this fuge. Lighting will be provided by a single 150w light. All drain water will be fed directly into a custom skimmer (~20" high, with a sedra9000 knockoff for recirculation and air input) with part of the drain tee'ed off into the fuge. The tank will be a BB. Flow: Return from a mag 9.5, tee'ed off into two outputs about 6 inches under the surface (with siphon breaks of course). Closed looped from a mag5 into a SCWD, plumbed into two OM Revolutions for a bit of random current. Topoff: 100% kalk water. Livestock: 4-5 false perculas. ??? anemone. The thing that I am not sure about the most is the anemone. What would all of you suggest? I want something that has longer tentacles... so nothing like a carpet. I was thinking maybe a ritteri? but those are hard to come by, and I think my tank is a little small for one. If any of you have any suggestions, comments, anything constructive to say, please post away! Thanks for reading my long post ![]() -Rich |
