Hi all,
Just finished putting together a 20L that I thought I would share! I added a Copperband to my 180 and I see him nipping at my acans :(

Set this tank up as a frag / safe haven for my acans, my favorite corals. Plan is to just have acans and maybe a pair of clowns.

Filtered by two AC50s filled with sea hem matrix, lots of tank turnover here and some added flow.

One 500gph petco wavemaker

200 watt heater with inkbird controller. (Apex probably coming soon)

For lighting I have an AI prime 16hd which I love! Also installed a single 24” blue + bulb using the sun blaster fixture, highly recommend. Anyone see a problem with the t5 above the led? They are offset so the t5 is just over the bracket. Minimal heat with 24 watt bulb, adds good coverage at 14” high.

Sumpless ato which is so cool, was really excited to try this out, working well so far.

Will update with stocking :)

Hey, I was just checking out someone else’s 20 so it must be a 20 gallon type of night. I like the 20, lots of land space due to the length and shallow for light par. That would look cool full of acan
 
Any updates ?
how are you liking the sumpless ato ?
