Hi all..... new to this site and fish tanks actually..... so I just set up my first tank.... its been running for 3 weeks now..... I've added 35lbs of live rock from day one.....now I've added a purple basslet, one clown, 4 snails, 3 hermit crabs and one emarld crab.... I would welcome any tips or advice.... wondering if I should be adding any equipment to this nano to make it peform/filter better.....I've done several water tests and everything seems a ok.... here are a few pics..... let me know what you think

I like it.
Three weeks seem awful soon to be putting in so much. Everything looks so clean, are you sure there is enough algea for the CUC? You may have to feed them.
Do you have some kind of skimmer?
I don't know much about nanos, but I like the way yours looks.
Welcome!

CUC is a cucumber. its an invert. i think he's referring to the bright purple stripe on the bottom rock. kinda does look like a CUC. do you know what type of lights you have. like PC's im guessing. but the wattage and bulb spectrum. i dont know if you need better lights. for what you have now, your lights are prolly fine. depends on what you want to put in there that is light demanding. so you may need an upgrade eventually. your call. and a skimmer on a nano is a good idea. there are many threads that can help with possibly adding a skimmer to your system....
