Here's my "bar". My 2 car garage has been converted. This is my "Man Cave" The wife and I spend more time in here than any other part of the house.
![]() My Lazy Chocolate Labs ![]() ![]() The Bar ![]() ![]() The "Door" ![]() Behind the door is a small "storage" space. In there I have a 13G garbage can mixing condictioned tap water with a powerhead and heater for my 40G breeder tank. I also use that room now to mix my 3G bucket for water changes on the nano. Its nice because it keeps everything out of sight. Here's a pic ![]() ![]() |

For some reason im not getting notifications on new posts...
Looks like you have the hook up! Tank looks good to, as you add your corals you'll notice that the rocks they come on my require you to rearrange a bit. But I'm sure you'll be fine. I would put something in there for the clowns to play in and be happy. As far as stocking, there are many factors... Bio load, grow out size, each fish getting enough food, territory, etc... I wouldn't put more than four fish in there, even with weekly water changes. I see you have at least one Nassarius snail, I call them my zombies (they stay buried with snorkels out till they smell food) They won't eat algae, but are awesome scavengers. Drop a piece of raw shrimp in the tank every now and then to feed them (pencil eraser size) it's really cool to watch. I would put a couple hermits, and several nerite snails to clean. ReefCleaners.org | Clean Up Crews and Macro Algae. Really good deals here

I have 4 blue leg hermits, 2 of those sand siffters and 3 other snails that eat the algae off the class. Not sure of there names, I'll get them today when I go to the LFS for some supplies. As for stocking I'm only going to add one more fish. Looking for a Green Clown Goby. Spec say they only get 1 3/4in so that should suit the tank just fine.

UPDATES:
Added the new T5 fixture. Its houses 2 10K, 2 Atinic and 8 "moon light" leds. For the first few days I had the fixture resting on the tank but found that after 6+ hours, the temps started to go up. It would start at 77 in the morning but about 6 hours later reach as high as 81!!! So I raised the light 6in above the tank. Also added a 4in Plate Coral ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is just the 2 10K day lights on ![]() Just the 2 Atinics ![]() ![]() And these are just the "moon light" leds ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Wow I haven't been on here in a while. Ever since I started my salt water tank I've been on NJReefers.org and Nano-reef.com. I wasn't getting the help I needed when I first started out so I had to turn to other forums. But here are some updated pics.

Asterina Starfish
GARF predatory starfish 11/25/01 Class: Asteroidea Order: Spinulosida Asterina starfish, or more commonly known as Fiji starfish are generally dime sized or smaller with a large body, irregular arm length, and an irregular number of arms. They tend to hide among corals and in the crevices of the live rock during the day and can sometimes be seen clinging to the corners of the tank. This type of starfish has been shown to eat coralline algae and some corals; specifically acropora, xenia, green star polyps, zoanthids, and several types of soft leather corals. These starfish divide across the main body with two or three legs of varying lengths and multiply rapidly. Remove these starfish if they start to bother your corals.
