33 Gallon Nano Cube Build

[StartingATank]

I have a max nano cube gs, burrently designing the infrastructure of the live rock, but plan on making two little islands. And a towering tall rock with a large cave at the base. Plan on getting these fish and inverts:
2 Clownfish
1 Springer Damsels
1 Midas Blenny
1 Royal Gramma
1 Tomini Tang
1 Peppermint Shrimp
1 Urchin
Couple Snails
Bunch of stomatella snails

Plan on getting these corals:
A Toadstool
As many zoas as possible
A Candy Cane
Multiple acans
A Branching GSP
A Pulsing Xenia
Some Euphyllia
Maybe some sps
Scolys
And other leathers

Really Excited about this tank

Looks like you're off to a good start

 

[StartingATank]

One of my Clownfish died to a battle with hexamita, but the other one has been cured, and is now in rehab and will get another in about a week

 

[StartingATank]

Got a new clownfish after treating my other Clownfish about 3 weeks ago, and they seem to already be mates, sleeping, dancing, and swimming beside one another

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with this thread. Had other things on my mind and kept forgetting I had this. So update: Got my 3 springeris, 2 of them almost killed the other one about a month ago and got a coral along with an urchin, got a tomini Tang, and a blue spotted watchman goby, which has disappeared. Got a sea cucumber which has also disappeared. Also about a month ago. Got a royal Gramma 2 weeks ago and a whole bunch of coral. Toadstool looks like it is shedding. Also, The only snails I can keep alive in my tank are trochus. No other snails. But, I have only tried turbo and trochus.

Toadstool opened up a little bit yesterday, but then closed up and looks like it is shedding again, growing shiny

 

[StartingATank]

Toadstool seems to finally set in and not shed anymore. Clownfish tried it out and got stung, and are staying away from it for now.

 

[StartingATank]

Not Good at keeping this up. Since then:

- Got new corals (Will put pics once I get home)
- No New Fish Yet
- Got 2 stomatella snails
- I also have an offer from this guy for an anemone and pulsing Xenia frag, just waiting for one of his anemones to split
- Got Acclimation Box
- Got ATO system
- Think that's it

Also, My stometella snails recently laid eggs without me knowing and they hatched, and now I have baby stometellas across the tank. How long does it take for them to mature?

Anybody?

Takes roughly a month for them to grow into their shells. Usually, in a couple of months, they will be fully grown.

So, bad news, but today, at around 2 am. My air conditioner went out. I am currently using handheld fans to cool the tank off. I usually keep it at around 76 degrees, but it is raised to 80 degrees right now. Don't have a chiller. Also am making RODI ice cubes to help cool of the etank if it gets too hot.

Sorry about the power, you can put the ice cubes in a freezer storage bag and float when/if needed. Tank looks awesome, well done!

Not to be that guy but isn't this tank quite a bit small for a tang, correct me if I'm wrong though

I have had some forums posted about this, asking myself this same question. Don't worry, I have gotten this alot. But since I got a tomini Tang, which stays relatively small, Incase it gets too big and I see visible signs of stress, I will rehome it and get a new one. I don't like to rehome fish, but if it doesn't show signs of stress from the small tank, then I will keep it.
