A new 25g tank is on order from Concept Aquatics. It turn out a 20L fits perfectly in the bottom of the cabinet so I'll rip out the pond liner and just silicone in the 20L as a sump. Picked up this guy (or girl I can't tell)...

Otherwise the tank is looking a little ugly. Brown sand and hair algae. Any recommendations? Current animals include:
3 tiny nassarius snails 3 dwarf blue legged herbit crabs 1 stomatella snail 3 tiny asterina stars 1 procelain anemone crab

most likely due to being a new tank and the hair algae is caused by excess nutrients. tell us a bit about your system like: water parameters mainly nitrates and phosphates?? light schedule? food or additives? ro water? water changes? reactors? when new tanks are set up its really not uncommon to see some brown algae usually it will dissapear in time now long hair algae is another story you need to cut down on its source of food being lights and nutrients.since you have no corals no? cut your lights for a while your crabs and snails wont mind and get your phosphates and nitrates as close to zero as possible.consider buying a small phosphate reactor or building one its quite easy and if your nitrates arent super high and you have some patience just cut back on any food being added to the tank and do some large water changes that should bring them down.it wont happen over night but will dissappear in time.
