Yeah, that was probably a key point I left out. Would like to have a mix of fish and corals. Probably not heavy on the fish, thinking like a pair of clowns, a gramma, coral beauty angel and maybe some cardinals or firefish. Not sure yet about coral, just want to get things started at this point.
Also, I don't have any filter on the undergravel, just the plate and the side tubes being used to pull up water. I thought that was better, so that you didn't have to worry about fish and other things getting pulled into the power head. Are there other better ways around that?
Thanks for the initial response APC.
