im setting up a small pico reef,

with:

1. 30w heater,
2.small power head,
3.HOB filter from 10 gallon (even though not the best to use in marine tanks)
4. fiji sand 5-7 IBS
5.fiji live rock 3-5 IBS
6. a few hard corals, 2-3
7. maybe an annenome thing
8. correct lighting 30W 50/50 10,000K
9.inverts crabs, shrimps

But what i really want to know is, is there ANY fish just one, that i could keep in there. i know the tank is small and not very stable, but i have kept 8 tanks of all sizes for 5 years, and i have been known to have "perfect water", so please if you can think of any fish i could have please list it below.

and fish set up. I have proper heat, filtration, and protein skimmer.I have live sand but no live rock yet. I was just wondering if anybody out there with the same basic tank could tell me about how much live rock they used in their setup and what type of light they found was the best for this tank? Thanks Sam

Ok got my bio cube 29 setup with salt water and 25 lbs of live sand yesterday.Today I put in 25 lbs of live rock took my bio balls out put a small piece of live rock in the bottom of the back middle section and put some bio balls back in.I tested the water for salt it is 1.024 I believe that is correct the 024 is I know. Then I purchased a reef master test kit from aquarium pharmaceuticals. It test calcium,caronate hardness,phosphate and nitrate levels.I tested all of them my Nitrate is at zero the phosphate is 0.0ppm the calcium is 300 mg/L ppm and the caronate hardness is 1 dKH or 17.9 what do you think of these levels? This kit didn’t have a ammonia test what do you think of that? Tank is running about 77-78 degrees. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. What should I do next?
So if I get a ammonia test it spikes and then it should drop with the nitrates and then I know the tank has cycled? Then I do a small water change and can ad 1 fish?
After the tank cycles ideally I would want my numbers at what?

I want to go saltwater. I have a lot of experience with freshwater tanks. The only thing that is stopping me is the fact I will be moving in a few months, not far so im kind of over reacting lol. Anyways, Id be doing a 5 or 10g tank with live rock, some coral/reef and fish. I am responsible when it comes to giving fish proper room. So could 2 Ocellaris Clownfish, live in a 5g tank? 10g? If not what fish could? I have also heard protein skimmers are needed for tanks above 75g’s.

So what are the basic supplies I would need for this setup and fish.

She has it originally as a reef aqaurium but the reef died amost half a year ago. We have a blenny, a clown and some damsels in there now. We recently just bought a zonathid but it still hasn’t opened up..it’s been about 5 days. Is it still alive? Also when we take the damsels out what are some other fish that would go good in this setup? One more thing….there is algae on the bottomof the tank around the sand….how do I clean this off?

I am looking for some good corals that are cheap, easy to maintain and will live in various positions(top, side and bottom of the reef base)
My tank is 65 gallons has four percula clowns (two pairs) and live rock and 1 lobophyllia and 1 catphyllia coral. The water has a low to medium flow rate and I am planning on getting a yellow tang and some green chromis. (Maybe some other fish that will live with my setup)
names will do as I will research them further myself.

I have a 55gal Salt water setup. Live rock and sand, Anemones, Shrimp, Em. crabs, and turbo snails. Up until a few days ago I also had a tank full of fish (about 10) clown fish, tangs, angel fish… A week ago my largest tang (5") jumped out of the tank twice in 12hrs. Then it disappeared. Now I’m down to 2 fish, a yellow tang (3") and a nesso tang(4"), and they’re both skiddish but fight over the food. All of the other life forms are still alive and the water checks out fine. Would a mantis shrimp go after only the fish and not the shrimp, crabs…? And how big would a manit shrimp have to bee to decamate my tank in less than a week? What’s getting my fish?

i have a small reef setup with a pulsating xenia, 5 ghost shrimp, 2 stripe-legged hermit crabs, a blue legged hermit, an emerald crab, 2 astria snails, a turbo snail, a clownfish, a scooter blenny, a dominoe damsel fish and, a very small angler fish. my tank is about 2 1/2 months old and i just recently added two zooanthid frags and they havent opened up yet! They have been in my tank for around 48-72 hrs. I had just added some trace elements(kent nano reef parts A and B) the day before i added them, do you think they are going to survive????

I have recently bought a used nano reef aquarium. When I bought it, the tank was pretty run down, but there was live rock, live sand and some other misc creatures (small feather duster and a few small clams..I think). I did a complete water switch and waited for the cycle. I showed a small spike in ammonia on the second day after the change and now 5 days after the change there is no ammonia or nitrite and a reading of 20 on nitrate. I am also pretty sure that it finished cycling because there is a sudden growth of green dust looking algae. I also noticed that the small clams (if they are clams) are emitting tiny white embryos (I think) out of their syphons. Should I go ahead with my clean up crew. I have had a 201 powerhead running a 80gph hob filter and a 50w tronic heater in this 7 g mini bow setup. Let me know what you think……Lastly I have been seeing these really tiny half orange half black hairy worms. what are they? Bristle worms?
Please only answer if you are experienced reefer and have an idea of what I am talking about. All answers are appreciated but I really need to know which direction to go from someone who knows themself

If anyone could please give me a website which shows how to set it up, I have a 75gal tank, reef. Can somebody please either direct me to a website or just tell me now here, extensively. Ty
