Hello!
Just set up my first tank (also posted all this in the Nano tank threads). It's been cycling for about 2 days now. Ghost feeding a shrimp. Will pull it out and try to keep ammonia at about 2ppm.

Not sure how I like the cave.. what do you all think?

Equipment:

JBJ 10g Rimless Flat Panel Aquarium
ReefBreeders Nano LED (36w)
198 gph pump
Coarse sponge
50w Eheim Jäger heater
AutoAqua Smart Temp Security (might not be working..)
Bubble Magus MiniQ Nano Internal Protein Skimmer (not installed until tank's cycled)
Two Little Fishes MagFeeder

Activated carbon (was going to put that in closer to completing cycle)
Seaside Aquatics ceramic bio spheres
Ceramic Rings
AquaForest salt mix
10 lb. Fiji Pink Arag-Alive! Reef Sand
CaribSea LifeRock Dry Live Rock
100 mL BIO-Spira - Instant Ocean ( was going to add in a couple days to let ammonia build)
PE Mysis Flakes (for when I have fish)

I plan do get a clown fish (maybe 2?) and anemone
Shrimp and gobies pair and/or Blennie
Maybe another small fish
Some LPS and softies
Maybe an SPS

I've had gear for a 75g for years but have been moving around a lot. I'm close to being settled so that should be coming in the next year or two.

I'll post more as this one progresses. Thanks for checking it out!
