I currently have 5 fish that inhabit this tank, 2 onyx percs, a coral beauty, a 6 line wrasse and a tailspot blenny (I love this guy). I have 3 shrimp that make the place home, a giant skunk cleaner, a scarlet blood shrimp, and a single very large peppermint shrimp, a bunch of nass. snails, some atrea's, some ceriths, and a single blue leg hermit. Forgive the pics, I am trying to learn how to use the camera.

My sump, I went for the 10 gallon to a 15 gallon and upgraded the skimmer, I have a Euroreef Cs5 something or other on there now. It is rated for tanks up to 90 gallons, so I think it can handle my 30 gallons total water volume.

I got these PE's from BRK but I have no idea what they are called, they have a white/pink oral disk, green mouth and light green skirt.

When I saw the tailspot in your tank I loved how he looked and his personality, I had to have one. He is very social, it didn't take him long either, anytime I move towards the tank he comes right up to the glass.

Thanks, glad you like it. I cut the power at least once a week to clean and maintain the tank, it has room for about 3 gallons of water in the sump when the water drains. There is only about a gallon of water that drains down when the power is cut so it doesn't overflow, it rises to just below the rim.

I got the black egg crate from a group buy through my local club WAMAS. A box was approx. $130 for 12 pieces so I ended up paying around $13 or $14 after splitting the cost between 10 members.
