5+ months old. A 2.6 gallon nano that I picked up so I’d have a place to move some of my more invasive species like my mushrooms & GSP. Currently it’s running the stock 9 watt 10k bulb with moonlight, the cheap little HOB filter (w/carbon) & a small heater. While the sand is new (in retrospect I wish I had scooped up sand from my fuge) I moved several fully cured live rocks, & used water from my larger reef. I’m hoping this will be enough for the tank no to go into a cycle but I’ll be watching it closely. It’ll make a nice little hospital tank and I hope will give me some inspiration to spend more time developing this blog.

Current inhabitants include zoanthids, palythoa, mushrooms, ricordia mushrooms (florida), Green Star Polyps, Nassairus snails, & an Anemone Shrimp. There are also lot of brittle stars, pods & other small creatures crawling around.
