The Radion xr 15 , the Neptune auto water changer , and Neptune auto doser might be overkill for such a small tank

That’s why it’s the overkill peninsula lol. Light and pumps can all be dialed down in intensity

 

[CoralB]

Guess I didn’t understand , so their wasn’t a question ? You can dial down the light but your spread will be at least 24 inches

That is true. If the choice is leave the 15 in the closet and buy another light or throw it on the tank it’s not much of a question lol.

all sps; acropora and montipora. For fish thinking a small bristle tooth tang and a couple wrasses.

I think you are way under gunned for a Tang. The only wrasse that will be ok in such a small tank is a opossum wrasse.

I have a 250 gallon I’m setting up that the tang can go in once it outgrows system. If I do it I’ll get the smallest tang I can 1.5”

So the 15 gal over kill just turned into the 40 gal appropriately equipped. Went down to innovative marine today to see if I could pick up a stand for the 15 fusion and instead walked out with this.

Not much to share. Tank is cycling ammonia is at .25 and nitrate is at 5.5. Hopefully in a week we are cycled enough to add our first fish. Probably gonna be a clown if some sort.

Definitely following along !!!

But if you are gonna go for all Acro/Monti's an XR30 might fit the bill better truly.

I’ve got a xr30 pro and blue if it needs it sitting in boxes for my larger build once I cut my teeth on the nano.

1st inhabitants. Ammonia is non existent and nitrates are bumping along. These guys should finish off the cycle in the tank and be fin to observe.

Really weird when I added my fish my PH took a nose dive? Anyone have any thoughts ?
