I've been putting together this 2.5 nano for quite some time. After much research I found very nice invisible clowns, ghost shrimp & transparent hermits. I've been told I'm a little light on live rock & need to add some. What do you think? LOL
Truthfully, after our 29 bowfront exploded one night, we are hesitant to have a bare bottomed reef tank.

No starboard? Still looks nice though, One day I'll make the switch to BB, right now I'm thinking waht a pain in the -!- it would be to do so, plus I have a couple of engineer gobies that wouldn't be too happy if I did. I'll wait for them to go before I do.

cleaner. if you just keep fish and inverts that dont need a sandbed. i have tanks both ways i prefer my bare bottom when you see all the gunk that collects on the bottom of a tank and you think that could be in the sand yuck

in the bottom of the tank you put marine starboard and it's protect on the glass.
