I currently have 5 fish that inhabit this tank, 2 onyx percs, a coral beauty, a 6 line wrasse and a tailspot blenny (I love this guy). I have 3 shrimp that make the place home, a giant skunk cleaner, a scarlet blood shrimp, and a single very large peppermint shrimp, a bunch of nass. snails, some atrea's, some ceriths, and a single blue leg hermit. Forgive the pics, I am trying to learn how to use the camera.

My sump, I went for the 10 gallon to a 15 gallon and upgraded the skimmer, I have a Euroreef Cs5 something or other on there now. It is rated for tanks up to 90 gallons, so I think it can handle my 30 gallons total water volume.

I got these PE's from BRK but I have no idea what they are called, they have a white/pink oral disk, green mouth and light green skirt.

Thanks again, and those are green bay packers.
 
When I saw the tailspot in your tank I loved how he looked and his personality, I had to have one. He is very social, it didn't take him long either, anytime I move towards the tank he comes right up to the glass.
 
Man I would love to make a frag tank. I need to get stuff out of my display. It is just to small for all the extras. I only have a 28 EcoSystem Mini.
 
sweet tank! i am going to be setting up a frag tank soon. how do you keep your sump water level so high? wouldnt it overflow if the power goes out at that level?
 
Looking good. Keep everything growing and soon you'll have a zoa forest.
 
Thanks, glad you like it. I cut the power at least once a week to clean and maintain the tank, it has room for about 3 gallons of water in the sump when the water drains. There is only about a gallon of water that drains down when the power is cut so it doesn't overflow, it rises to just below the rim.

You just inspired me to start a frag tank in the near future awesome job there. Where did you get the black egg crate?
 
I got the black egg crate from a group buy through my local club WAMAS. A box was approx. $130 for 12 pieces so I ended up paying around $13 or $14 after splitting the cost between 10 members.
