nice tank, man, love RBTAs. Gonna try any carpets?

No, not going to mix BTA and Carpet. Tank is too small to mix different species anemones.

What about mini-nems? I'm sure you could get away with a few extra of those. This tank is awesome! I actually planned on doing something like this but couldn't get the funding together for it :( I love clowns and love to see their little heads popping out at me from behind some tentacles... makes me happy.

I'm in the process of doing a nem tank in a 29 biocube. Your tank is looking good. I can't wait to see it unfold (and I can't wait for my own to come together). Keep us updated!

I lost the GBTA and also both the clownfish. I think the gbta was already not in very good health when I got it as it will inflate and deflate every day and didn't want to eat when I fed all the other bta. As for the clowns, it was my fault for adding a fish into the tank w/o QT and it came down with ich and took down the clowns with it.

I have a pair of True Perc at home now in QT and will add them to this tank in my office in a few weeks. I added a Yahsa Goby to pair up with the Pistol Shrimp that came with the tank when I bought the tank. I didn't see it for couple of weeks and was writing it off, but finally saw it with the pistol shrimp this week. Also added some Acan frags.

I also changed out the stock Current 150W 14K bulb to a Phoenix 150W 14K, I still need to make a mounting arm to hang the LED fixture I got from Reefkoi.

Here's couple of quick pic I took today.
