Excuse me for answering for you Barrett. He is running a tek 4x24w HOT5. A nem might be do-able higher up in the tank. Your tank is how old now bud?
p.s. How does the the light support look? Doug.

Don't the Rock Flower Nem's tolerate a variety of lighting? I've been reading up a bit on them and it says they can tolerate a variety of lighting and can handle a little bit lower lighting than other nem's. Does anyone have experience with these because I've been thinking about getting one for my nano.

Nice work Doug, tek 4x24w HOT5 is what I'm working with. The support looks sexy too!
The tank is only about 7 months old though. Really if its do-able, the most likely candidate would be BTA for sure. Thanks for the insight everyone, if you have anymore insight I'll be in from the snow all night!! Barrett

BTA's don't require as much lighting as other nems, so you will be good to have a small one in a 30g, especially if your tank height is under 24inches. And just think, as it splits you can sell off the babies to other hobbiests.

The height of the tank is just over 17inches, so 2feet shouldn't be a problem.
I think for the amount of advice on here that I have directly and indirectly heard, it would be quite easy to give something like that away. Still snowy ladies and gents, anything further to add? Many Thanks Too!

BTA sounds good for what you've got - or an RBTA!

Your lighting is more than adequate for a BTA. I have one in a 75 gal under 4 x 54 watt T5HO and it's doing very well. When I first got it I only had a 2 lamp T5HO fixture. It went form fairly bleached when I got it to a brownish shade and has now become very 'metallic' green.
