Small Tank for Marine?

[shoakoua]

Yo bros,

want to hear opinion. I have a very small tank in the office, thinking of changing it to a marine tank.

1. The size of the tank is roughly 11 inch (length) 7 inch (wide) 7 inch (height)

2. Normal FL light

3. Normal filtration...with some rooms for bio-media.

Do you guys think it is possible to use it for marine, maybe with the following setup:

Option1

1 - 2 pieces of LRs

1 anemone and 1 maroon clown

Option2

1 - 2 pieces of LRs

1 mushroom coral or buttons

1 damsel

Possible?

dun see why not....

as for anemoe... er... er... if it goes to west heaven due to hot weekend.... then your tank might crash....

hello brother shoakoua,

think both ur options r possible... depends on ur choice... but for me i would keep 1 anemone n a pair of true percular clown... LR maybe 3 to 4 pieces...

Drop the plan.

Think Option 2 is do-able.

But need to change your lights.

Must do frequent water change and watch out for the fluctuating water parameters.

for small tank, frequent water change might stress the habitants...

though i may sound cruel but i think Golden Tooth's advice will save u a lot a lot of trouble ...

if die die going with it , i will choose option 2

get fish only laaa .. dont bother with corals .. anemone worst confirm wont survive ..... waste money only ....

Drop the plan.

Agree!

If you wanna play safe, keep only 1 or 2 yellow tail demsel. These little fellow are damn hardy, They are almost bullet proof reef fish. Frequent feeding is not really necessary, my yellow tail demsel only feed once a month with the brine shrimps when I feed my coral.......

u have to go for a gd filter.I am using a ehiem liberty 200 and my tank is onli 25cm x20 x 20cm. I tried to go for a weekly change, but i observed that it is 2 stressful for my tank. So if u really wan to keep in office, u must prepare to show care to them.
