  • Six gallon desktop

    Here is my six gallon that was started a little over a month ago.



    I really need to figure out how to take pics without the crazy blue. It doesn't look that blue in person.

    Anyway,

    6 gallon aquaH2O tank
    Koralia nano 240
    Ac20 (with sponge only-not in pic)
    6lbs live rock
    10lbs Carib sea sand
    BoostLED par30 bulb

    Cleaner shrimp
    Blue hermit
    Scarlet hermit
    Three margarita snails
    Mini brittle starfish that hitch hiked in.
    Four small zoa frags I picked up last week. Only 12-13 heads total.

            Trust me it's a full time job keeping it that way. Everyday when I get home from work its covered in crayons and coloring books!

            I normally keep my MacBook in the arc to the right of the tank, but I was doing water changes an stuff so I moved it to a safer location.

            I sure wish the wife would finish painting that wall...it's ruining my fts pics. Lol.

              Short video of the frogspawn.

              Everything is going well. Both hermits have taken larger shells and the cleaner is running around and eating like crazy. He is molting every couple weeks.

              Couple weeks ago I added a frogspawn, candy cane, gsp, and a small rock of zoas.

              Water params are spot on. Only thing I have changed recently is the addition of a heater. I haven't seen much fluctuation in temp, but it gives me some peace of mind.

              Enjoy. The sound at the beginning is my 4 month old. Sorry.

                I thought it was the corner of the room until you said something. :)

                Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

                          Looks good. Hows it looking now? If I was in my office at work more, I'd put in a tank.
                          39g Crypt/ anubias, wild shrimp and minnows.

                          55g Reef- first salt in many many years, coming along. Looking great, and stable. Garden mix of soft/lps corals. DIY refugeum

                          20g Reef- different than the first by design.
