I use a Vortech MP10 powerhead in my 6g edge at the lowest setting but I run it pretty high up to get some water surface tension to get as much oxygen as possible.

Do you leave a bit of air at the top of your tank to help with O2?

No. I keep the water line pretty high so that I can view everything top down.

Got a call from my friend at the LFS and he gave me two black percula's for free! Gotta love having friends in the fish business They are soooo nice, and looking very happy and eating very well. I will post some pics soon. I have a HOB skimmer on it's way as well, yay!!

I have a thread on nano reef and RC.

Not much to update. I just added a bluespot jawfish and anemone. I had a true perc clwonfish hosting in it but the bioload was too much for such a small body of water so I took him out.

Making it into a reef was just too much maintainence so the frags that were added were also taken out.

It's just a jawfish house at this point. I might get motivated again in the future and add more corals, who knows.
