Additional info. I already have the following equipment.
1) Apex
2) 20 inch 6 bulb nova extreme pro T5 fixture
3) Cannister filter
4) Hob skimmer
5) 35-50lbs rock.

I don't have to use any or all of this....it's just what I have on hand.

Sexy shrimp tank! Put in some LPS and like 20 sexy shrimp. If my 10 gallon FW fish will ever die off that is what I am doing with it.

That would either be the clown/anemone tank or a mandarin habitat. I'd love a dwarf lion fish but I dint see that going over well for a tank that might also qt new residents. For that matter since I run an open too tank, putting a lid on her and keeping blennies, fire fish and wrasse would be a "specialty tank" for me....


Keep the suggestions coming.

Now you're just being ridiculous. Everyone knows cobras need a min of a 55gal and don't color up good under t5.
