Here are some pics of my 10 gal "reef" tank. its 1 month old now and I am getting the water tested tomorrow. Ignore the taped down mesh top lol. I tried and I think it will work. I do not keep the lights on. I have only turned them on for the picture.
Nice scape, plenty of room there to fill in. If you haven’t already, check out inappropriate reefer’s 10 gallon budget nano series on YouTube. He offers some great instruction on how to start and maintain a nano reef.
