I have taken pictures of my precious ten gallon.This tank has been through hell and back over the last 2 1/2 years. I have battle hair algae nitrates ect ect and lost a tank full of corals twice with the exception of a couple that made it the full duration.I have been sps bound for about 8 months now and in total this ten gallon holds over 27 different types of corals.I have 8 differnt types of snails and a cucumber.I have natural phytoplankton growing along with a very diverse fauna population.<br><br>Enough talking heres the pics.<br><br></font></font></font></font></font></font></font>[/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font]

Thanks guys!

I am using a sleek coralife 20 inch modded into a 70 watt metal halide with 36 watt true actinic.

Heres a link for the mod with pics of how everything was done.

The most recent mod (actinic) is on page 3.

I'm going to make all these clickable because it's a pain in the butt otherwise.

Okay. That might help us out a bit. Now everyone can view them.

Only premie members can post pictures. That's why you had trouble. By the way, check out the markup language on the bottom of the page when you're posting. That will show you how to make links clickable. Much easier for us than copy and paste. Yes, we're lazy.

Welcome to FishProfiles BTW, we have an edit button so that you dont have to most multiple times in a row.

Tank looks pretty good. I like the zoos. Are you running a sump on it? Supplements? Keep in mind that that is a very small tank, and many SPS have the potential to grow rather large. They should be a minimum of 4" apart from eachother, with 6" being better and preferred. I dont know if I would keep them in there long term. Do you plan on upgrading? I can imagine with a set up that small that you've been through hell, small tanks present big challenges in keeping water clarity stable on on target.
