    thanks so much for all the wonderful comments, I just wanted to share that owning a reef tank doesn't have to be expensive! :D

    That is such a pretty tank. I love how it all turned out! I especially love your hermit crab and want one now! Thanks for sharing!

    My absolute Favorite hermit crab is actually this one in the picture. He was my very first critter I ever put in my very first tank which was the 33 gallon 8 months ago. I since then transfered everything to this 10gal and he is still alive and kickin!

    The next and final things I will be placing in here are a couple feather dusters, maybe a coco and a regular, then I'll be done and will be letting the zoos, anthelia, mushrooms and devils hand grow out. I'm gunna keep the kenya tree under a watchful eye and trimmed same with the frogspawn. if those frogspawn get any bigger without any fragging they will start to sting everything.

    Awesome 10 gal holly! I've got 2 ten gallon tanks laying around, one is brand new and the other is barely used, and I've been thinking about doing a simple 10 gallon nano with 10 gallon sump to hide all of the ugly equipment.....I think this thread just inspired me. I love the way it looks, and I've been wanting a tank for the bedroom....hmmmm!

    Really nice! I have a 10 gallon setup as well. But I just havent had the $$$ to stock it with nice stuff yet. But what is in it is doing well, and it really is an easy tank to care for. Just top offs and a weekly water change. I have a HOB filter instead of a canister, but other than that it's the same as yours. Here's a pic from awhile back.
