  1. let you have an idea of the actual size
  2. It's done with a nikon Coolpix 5000. Had to use macro mode and space the camera properly so that it comes into good focus. The sand bed is grade 0.
  3. It is abt 3mm long. Yes it is very pretty but I just worried that it will cause some harm in the tank later on.
  4. This came with the live rock this morning. Should I get rid of it?
  5. Hi, Setting up a small tank of dimension 21"(L)x16"(W)x12"(H). Have already added 3" of grade 0 sand as substrate and I measure the water height to be 12". Was thinking of keeping 2 small clownfish and some soft corals. However the light is a headache that I need your advise. Is it still possible with this small tank? The tank comes with 2x15W FL and most likely this is insufficient and would not be used. I've a old 70W MH with 4200K bulb that I can modify to 150W bulb. However for a shallow tank like this would the 150W bulb be over kill? I've asked around and it seems like 70W MH are not so good due to the color temperature. If I go with 150W and SE bulb, where can I buy the 150W 10K bulbs + Eballast locally and do you know roughly how much. With the 150W bulb I can hang the light higher from the water surface and hence it should reduce the water temp? Space is a constraint on the top of the tank so I can put so many PL tubes on it. Would you advise me to go with PL instead. Thanks.
