Florida Keys Nano 20g

G_Sanab922 · Jul 8, 2014

Hello all! :rockon: I'm not that new but recently found this forum. It's really nice and laid back. Looking to contribute and get some new ideas from others on here. I have a 20gal nano with a 2bulb t5 fixture. 15k and 420nm actinics. Right now i'm stocked with the following - Pair of juvenile clowns, purple dottyback, pepp shrimp, sargassum shrimp, hermits and turbo snails, Hollywood stunner chalice, GSP, Xenia, Kenya tree and zoa frag. Oh and a mangrove. I have my build thread from the beginning on Reef Central. Not sure if it's ok to link it but if anyone wants to see it just let me know.. Don't feel like reposting everything that happen on that thread and what I have. So feel free to ask me and i'll gladly answer you! Will be posting pics soon

Another update: got some local critters from a business that collects and sells online legally. Legit good site. And they ship very well. Let me know if anyone wants the link. I highly recommend them. Plus good prices!
I got a scarlet hermit with 2 feather duster worms on it, 2 small pencil urchins and a porcelain crab. All are dojng very well.

Do your crabs ever eat your snails?

Nope. My turbos are way too big for them.
Maybe my new scarlet but he's been chill so far. And haven't seen any snail deaths. Only have two right now. So I Can't complain :)

Thanks. I want to but it's a little far. I'll try to one of these days though. Definitely want to do a frag swap soon. Tom's Caribbean Tropicals Inc. He recently sold the business so it's under someone different now but same website and everything. So the phone numbers might change soon. He accepts walk ins but have to do an appointment. 90% of the stuff he has is collected. It's pretty cool.
