thanks mnat. i read matt's mandarin article a week or so ago(here at http://www.bluezooaquatics.com/resources.asp?show=352)and found another good article at (http://www.defineyourreef.frihost.net/fish/dra4feed.html)- i feel pretty good about supplementing the copes i have with the methods...
i did fail to mention the blue legged hermit in my current cleanup crew- the two stars are a serpent and a chocolate chip- i plan on moving the choco chip to my larger fowlr tank. also- will only keep reef safe inverts and fish- actually, the only fish i plan to add in the future is a royal...
thank you for the positive and helpful responses! they are greatly appreciated. i feel a bit better about the equipment lineup. i was just a little hesitant to simply apply this stuff to a running fowlr and expect it to eventually become a nano reef. i kinda like the look of sand and was also...

been keeping marine fish casually for 20 years or so, with great success, but am no expert. Got out of it for a while as i moved to a new home, and recently started back up. My question: I currently have a 40 gallon kit i received as a gift. Set it up in January 09. It came with just an...
(40 gal). i've got a couple of snails, one hermit, two dominoes, a flame scallop, some small pieces of live rock and a coral banded shrimp. a few weeks ago i noticed a bunch of tiny creatures swimming along the inside glass, in a few days there were hundreds- about the size of a small brine...
