    10g Glass Tank from Walmart
    No sand - running BB
    10lbs of Florida Reef Rock from reefcleaners.org
    LED Lights - BeamsWork Reef Bright LED Light Fixture 18" - 21"
    Fuge and Skimmer - Hang On Refugium with Protein Skimmer 14" + Powerhead
    Powerheads - Odyssea EX100 Powerhead x2

    Cheato and Pods from Reefcleaners.org and will go into the fuge along with some live sand and piece or two of rubble.

    Question I have is for the CUC I want to get... does anyone know if I should get it since I'm going for BB or will it not make a difference?

    Aside from that I will eventually put corals in it and it seems a bit small but if I leave plenty of room you think I could get away with a single Ocellaris Clownfish? That's the only fish I want and I want to set this up as a night light for my baby's room that is due in July. It's my first baby! :) I'm hoping to imprint some bit of this hobby into the little one's mind so that when the baby gets older we can do the hobby together.

    I know the tank is kind of small for a ocellaris clown but I was thinking if it was the only fish in there after the tank is established, the pods and feedings should keep the fellow happy and I plan on giving him/her plenty of caves and places to get around and swim. The tank is 20.0*x*11.0*x*12.0 and I realize the rock and corals would cut down on the room a bit but I'm thinking I can keep the little fella happy.
