I'm feeling a little down since nobody has commented on my 20g since I updated the tank thread. I wanna show it off and get some feedback!

I'm not going to repost them because with my phone it's a pain. Look for the newest update! :D

Thank you very much! n.n It's young and small yet but I'm really proud of the progress.

Progress with success is ALWAYS slow ... you go too fast and you are likely to run into issues so the slower you go the better IMO ... when I set up a new tank, and I set one up recently, a 10 G nano, and that is now well over 6 weeks ago, I still only have some CUC's in there, 2 Pavona cactus frags, a few Grass Shrimp and a number of red Actinodiscus mushrooms, but no fish yet .... and I may not put in a fish for another two weeks or so ... I add corals first and then eventually fish ... slow is the way to go. and of course Patience is what is needed :)

When the tank is a little further ahead, I'll post some FTS pics of it ... for now there is not much to see so no sense in posting an FTS yet, but soon ...

Very true ... patience is often a problem or the lack of patience ... is the problem :)

My Walmart tank, 10g lol! I'm a newbie, obviously. Got a bunch of the live rock from my husband, who is a diver. The rest I got from the lfs. It's starting to shape up. Just added the lights and they are making a difference.

Nice and all the best in reefkeeping
