20G long BTA/Clown Tank

After careful consideration based on space, time and money constraints, I have decided my next system with be a 20 gallon long BTA and Ocellaris clown tank. The 40B systems I suggested earlier will be simply too much to handle in my last semester of university studies. Work on this project will begin at the start of June!

Equipment:

20G long, drilled
AquaC Urchin Skimmer
Magdrive Return pump
2X vortech mp10WES
10G sump

Livestock:

20lbs LR (5 in display, 15 in sump)
Multiple Bubble Tip Anemones
Pair of Ocellaris Clowns
Serpent Starfish
Snails for CUC (dwarf cerith, nerite, trochus)
Chaetomorpha
Flame Algae

Honestly I have never run a skimmer on tanks that I kept anemones in.

This one turned into a BTA farm. You'll notice LPS and some Sps. T5 lighting.



Same here, no skimmer and PC lighting.


I am hesitant to put perching fish like Blennies or bottom fish like Gobies/Mandarins in anemone tanks.

Hope that helps.

 

Thanks
