I have a custom hood with 2 X 36 watt PC's over it. One 10,000K and One 7100K Actinic Blue. It also has a custom refugium 12 X 18 inches that houses the CPR BakPak 2 Skimmer and the heater. That's about it as far as equipment. As far as critters it has a dozen nassarius snails, a few astrea, a hermit, one emarald crab, and a Yellow Watchman Goby.

WOW nice tank :)
I would like to know how you go about cleaning your glass? I have a 10 gal nano going and I seem to be placing the rock straight down the center so I can vacum the crushed coral and clean the glass on a regular basis.
I would love to change to sand now but when you do water changes do you just take water out or do you vacum too?

I really only worry about keeping the front of the glass clean. In a reef tank the coraline algea seems to take over to quick to worry about the back especially. You do not have to clean the substrate in a reef tank. The brisstle worms and pods will take care of cleaning it up. Plus there is benificial bacteria that lives in your sand bed.

Wow! great coraline growth. How long have you had this up and running? I second the request for pix of your fuge, and more close ups. I plan on my 6 gal being ric/zoo, or just zoo's. More pix please!
