Well this is not my first tank but I am still pretty new to the hobby. So I got a Solana in hopes of setting up a small reef to enjoy.
I thought I would share with everyone my little adventure as well as ask questions along the way. Sorry for the fuzzy pictures, we had the camera on the wrong settings. I am still learning how to take better pictures of the tank... Enjoy!!
Equipment I have:
34 Gal solana w/ stock pump and skimmer
175W Hamilton Metal Halide Pendant
30lbs LR (thanks to busdriver)
2 Koralia 2's (thanks to dailydriven)
+more
Everything upon arrival! Contents include: Tank, Salt, Hydrometer, Heater, Digital Thermometer, Test Kit, and a few other things...
Here it is full of water. I filled it with water in early December but decided not to add anything until after Christmas since we were planning on being out of town for the holidays..
Here I am going the 30ish lbs of LR I got and setting up my aquascape. I placed to rock first then I added the sand.
And here it is after I added the water! It didnt take long to clear up.
Here is a FTS taken today and a few of its inhabitants! Can someone tell me a good height to have the pendant from the water?
Can anyone name these clowns? When I purchased them they were labeled as Tomato's but I am not sure...
Any suggestions on other livestock?? I want to start adding some corals as soon as I get the money
My next project is an ATO!
Thanks for looking! I will add more pics later as I add things to the tank (if they are any good at least...)
