![]() A little update, as I have been super crazy busy I havn't had a lot of time with the tanks.
Anyways, I knew things where going pretty well with my cycle cause the HA was growing like crazy. So I picked up 5 mexi turbos & 10 hermit crabs last week @ RC while I was in the area. They have done a great job so far with atleast 80% of it is now gone. I switch back to the Tunze 9010 skimmer from the little nano skimmer I bought ( regret that purchase decision ) as the collection cup was way to small. Also picked up a Yellow Clown Goby, Green Clown Goby & Wheeler's Shrimp Goby to go in with my little clown. Need to raise my light a little bit & set up an ATO system but all in all tank is going not to bad........so far.

![]() All right then, on with the show..............
I have been completely consumed the last week with just being able to get out of bed from blinding migraine, shoulder pain, muscle tension & a twisted vertebrae that I just about forgot to update my thread so here it is. Livestock thus far: 5 - mexi turbo snails, 10 - hermit crabs, a false Perc, Green Clown Goby, Yellow Clown Goby, Wheeler's Shrimp Goby & a cleaner shrimp ( just cause I couldn't put him in big tank yet ) Also tossed a few zoa frags, frogspawn, blastos & neon candy cane in from the big tank to see if that would help them grow better. Need to get some peppermint shrimp in to see if they will deal with the apitasia. I also need to increase the flow a bit with a bigger return pump & going to switch out the ACjr controller with a full blown Apex. Here's some pics taken with my iPhone. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() looking nice greg!
how on earth are you running a 6025 in there without it ripping everything to shreds? I tried putting one in my 28g nanocube and I found the the flow was far too strong. |

The 6025 is actually not running any more, I plugged it in for about 10 mins & pulled the plug. You are correct that it's way to much flow for the nano. I have a couple smaller pumps I am going to try out to see if I can get the flow rolling a little better.
