I was waiting to post a tank thread here, as I knew a (small) upgrade was imminent! For the past two years I have been slightly neglecting an Innovative Marine 10 gallon, partially due to not loving the dimensions, and partially due to an illness I had that kept me incapacitated for about 6 months. Once I was better, I began to tend to my reef again and really feel some love for the hobby, but my tank just wasn't what I wanted it to be. I have always loved nanos, and the dimensions on the new IM 25 lagoon immediately caught my eye, so I pulled the trigger last week! I wouldn't say my 10 gallon was fully stocked by any means, but it was starting to fill in a little bit with some things I just wasn't that in love with, and a semi-fresh start like this feels like a great way to re-evaluate what I want out of my small reef. Here is the last full tank shot of my old tank: I don't really have anything else to post yet, as the tank hasn't even gotten wet, but I expect to finish the stand tonight and (hopefully) get it wet tomorrow! The plan is to just do a straight up transfer with new sand and saltwater (mixing since yesterday), throw a little Stability in, and keep a close eye on it. I don't plan on adding anything else until I am sure the transfer went well. Enjoy!

Just wanted to show some pictures/video of my bedroom 8 gal IM tank 1 year old. 2 snowflake clowns 1 diamond watchman, and lots of bright green gsp. I regret not getting a 20g, I went small because this is 1 of 3 tanks, I have. so I was trying to keep costs down. The rocks are 97% covered in GSP, and there are 9 frags of GSP growing on the back wall. The clowns have both hosted to the GSP. I am thinking of removing the sand completely, and allowing the gsp to cover the bottom of the tank. Just wanted to hear some thoughts? I run the tank with Chemipure elite, purigen, jbj nano zapp uv, floss, intank media basket, and a return pump 4x power over stock. http://youtu.be/47bM9fQQ76Y
