A while ago, there was a thread about a display 'fuge -- all algae and pods. I love the look of a refugium, so I might do that if I were looking for something different. A species tank like an anenome tank can also look amazing -- there was an RC TOTM that was all anenomes, and it looked wild.

On the other hand, I might also use it as a frag grow-out tank, or a QT.

A Bangaii cardinal breeding tank, with just a pair or more of Bangaii & a long spined urchin. Then if they breed, you can see the fry swim into hide among the urchin spines. That'd be cool I think.

You could also sell the Bangaii fry and get a little extra cash back from the hobby.

Another idea is to go with various shrimp/goby pairs. I can't do it in my main reef now because the shrimps dig up sand and make caves all over the place. There are several shrimp/goby configurations so maybe have 3 or 4 different pairs. Also, I'd like a jawfish.

I'm with Sam on this one. I love the shrimp/gobie pairing. I have one pair in my 44g cube and just think it is so neat. The pistol shrimp it is paired with is a mean SOB though - he has tagged me a couple of time when I was too close to it's burrow. I have a jawfish in my 12g nano and they are just simply beautiful fish. Hmmm........I have a 20g kicking around ....maybe just a shrimp/gobie tank.
