20g BB LED Reef Pics
Here are the basics on the tank. The lighting is a 20K 7 LED PAR38
The circulation is provided by 2 koralia nano's (1 smaller and 1 larger). I have an ATO on the tank as well. I currently do not dose anything or run a skimmer. I do water changes once or twice a week. Tank is a couple months old, most things came out of my 10g which ran for about 5 months. I do plan to add a hang on skimmer soon and at least one more par38 bulb. I also plan to add some auto dosing at some point as well...maybe one i get more light and start adding some stonies. In the picture with the purple zoa's you can see about a weeks worth of detritus accumulation. I love being able to just siphon it out. Although as you can see I haven't had as much time for water changes as I would like. It is very difficult to get good pictures under the LEDs. A lot of time the stuff looks totally different in pictures than in person, But I feel I have managed to get some fairly representational shots. Although I make no claims about picture quality. Current Inhabitants: Coral Banded Shrimp Emerald Crab Royal Gramma (In QT for ich at the moment) Corals: Kenya Tree Toadstool Neon Green Candy Cane Neon green/yellow pollicipora GSP Whammin Watermelon Zoas Nuclear Green Dragon Eye Zoas Purple Zoas Neon Green frogspawn Dark Green w/ green/purple tips frogspawn Asst.

Looks good! I run the same light. I also have no skimmer or sump. I definitely agree with you that the LED bulbs make the tank very hard to properly photograph.
