Ok, so a while ago I started a small ten gallon saltwater tank with plans to upgrade if things went well. After a some setbacks (halo elite invasion, tiny coral-eating starfish, aiptasia, to name a few) I made the move up to a 20 gallon high today. I bet no one believed me when I said I'd do it when the time was right.
It's not very big, but my black clown goby, three hermits and four snails are loving it. The water's a little foggy from the sand, but things look nice so far. Nice but empty. I need more live rock, but I have 20 pounds of sand, ten new and ten from the old tank. Since the pesky starfish murdered all my coral, it's FOWLR for now. I want to get better lighting before I get corals. Still wondering how to stock it, though.
I did goof, though, and accidentally grabbed a 30 inch glass top instead of a 24 inch one because it was in with the 24 inch ones. So, not only did I pay more than I needed to for it, it's the wrong size and I opened it and cut the plastic without realizing. It stinks, but hey. Anyone want to trade for something? lol
