Karlee's 20 gal WaterBox

[karleeaddison]

After some convincing from my husband I agreed to get a 10 gal WaterBox and have a very minimalistic tank. Obviously, that didn’t happen because I ended up with a 20gal! Now what should I do? Follow me and my journey through making a beautiful tank!

Congrats and post pics once you get it going!

So this is my WaterBox Cube 20 a few weeks back.
It has an AI Prime 16 HD light.
Aquami Powerhead it’s an older model we had in another tank. We are thinking of upgrading my powerhead in the future but this is doing the job.

I took part in my first WWC Fragtober Fest event and now I’m loaded and trying to let everything grow out. So here is my update! I included the WWC list of things in my tank currently. I also have a Walking Dendro, a few Zoas we got from a local reefer, a hammer coral frag from my husbands tank, a pair of Mocha Storm Clowns from a local store, and a cleaner shrimp we have had for ages from my husbands tank. (Also we had a puffer in my tank [pictured before] and decided to give it to another reefer due to it eating my corals).

Haha! It’s going to be fun! I’ve had it up and going for a while just hadn’t taken the time to actually make a thread. So here goes nothing! Thanks for following along

I think I’m going to do this in my tank but now I have to figure out what to do with some of the extra coral frags I have.

Watch out that Hollywood stunner chalice will take over. I got mine from wwc as well. Finally took it out and fragged it up. Was over taking a lot of real estate.

@karleeaddison
Following. I have a 20gal waterbox. Zoas, clown and 2 damsels I kicked out of my big tank. I have a Kessel a80 on my tank. Rented PAR meter for the big tank and figured why not check the waterbox. And super low PAR even on full strength with the a80 like barely 25 at the sand. Long story short. Have you checked the par with the prime light? Hows coral growth going?
Also a few other questions. Do you use filter sock? Filter cup? Anything in the first chamber? I have nothing. I use the ceramic bio balls in the second chamber with my eshoppes nano skimmer. Third chamber is heater and return. Also ATO.
And no luck finding the Instagram you posted for this tank.
