thanks guys... hey does anyone know what the lil creature is in the second to last pic?
its right in between the two rocks

it looks like a tiny anemone to me ?

 

[shinningballs]

bubble coral?

 

[biggz2282]

lol...the bubble coral is to the right....i know cause i placed him there

if you look on the left in between the 2 rocks there is a brownish "anemone" looking thing

the only reason im questioning it is because its really small...about 1/2 inch in diameter

and i've never seen an anemone that small

Not a good picture, but it looks to me like a majano. Can you get a better picture from the side pane?

 

[Jcurry@wesketch]

I second the majano ID. Bubble coral is in the lower right on the sand.

i'll go kill it now

wow, nice. This makes me want to really set up my 20g l, I think I will, and the set up is pretty much the same save I get to finally check out my new 250! I just started checking out SPs!

Bro nice tank, gotta stop by someday

 

[biggz2282]

hey guys quick question.... is this skimmer too big for my tank?

http://www.aquacave.com/octopus-dnw-150-recirculatingbr-protein-skimmer-984.html

cause i have it already and i wanted to know if i should hook it up or not?

 

[Darkmazda]

Ya that skimmer maybe too much for a 20, I would sell it and downgrade to a smaller skimmer. Or you could just uipgrade to a bigger tank

 

[biggz2282]

well i have a few ideas on my saltwater setup...

i was planning on upgrading to a 29 to get a bit more height ...

but also wanted to setup a 55g and a 30g fuge and plumb it all together

the way i see it by everything being plumbed together i get more stability
in my reef but then get to keep some bigger non reef safe fish in the 55
and the fuge helps out both systems and since my skimmer is rated up to
185g i should be ok....

waddaya think?

 

[playazballin21]

upgradeeee ;D

Not a big fan of 55g tanks. Just a little too narrow for my liking.

You're skimmer should be good though
