Bro`s 18 reef..

[mr. tuna]

Hey,
my 10 year old brother got a 18 gallon tank, which is going to be a reef. We got it about 2-3 months ago, and he has damsels so far. We will soon start adding. I was thinking of:
2 perc. clowns
1 royal gramma
small pom pom xenia
hammer
branching frogspawn
star polyps
zoos
bubble tip anenome
Any suggestions?

Good luck, just make sure you have the proper lighting for the hammer
branching frogspawn
star polyps
zoos
bubble tip anenomet .

ya, he has 2x32 watts over an 18 g.
If thats not enough, then i will get him a small Mh bulb.

not enough for the anenome...get the MH

i wouldn't go with 175w to much.....I would go with the HQI 150w double ended

 

[reefer44]

well that is not proven yet....they say that............also the light output on the 150 is less focused as it is with most of 175 mogul bases...so instead of getting a "beem" of light it spreads out a little more..(that is if your using the reefstar compared to the 175w pendant)

get a 70 watt DE bulb, shouldn't cause to much evap, and good luck to you and your brother
