Ok so everyone is always all about the color and the pop. I've decided to do a hard 180° flip. The plan is a black and white setup. To kick it off I'm picking up a 16g innohttp://www.marinedepot.com/Innovative_Marine_16_Gallon_Nano_Aquarium_w_2_x_8_ Watt_10000K_Skkye_Light_Clamp_LED_Light_White_Nano _Tank_with_Lighting_10_19_Gallons-Innovative_Marine-0I10213-FIAQNCCKTLTN-vi.html or 34g.

I currently have a baby black anglar who will be a primary resident.

I'm looking to place a black sun coral, white Acro, and white flower pots. Does anyone know of any others?

Black and white clowns? Or an all black clown and a platinum clownfish would be neat.

Black photon or Wyoming Whites maybe. I'm trying to think of other corals also.

white sea whip - anything you get that is white or black is most likely going to be non-photosynthetic.

No they are out there, they come with
Different polyps for white to green and Steve Tyre even had a blue polyp at one point. I am looking for a black zoa with white center I remember seeing also.

Good point perhaps I should start it with nps. Where are you finding the black sponge and white sea whip hob?

So my ghost eel and black clown pair will be joining my fast growing black anglar.
My current corals are going to my wife's Osaka. I found a white hammer, and some white flower nems which I will be picking up shortly. We may end up using the Osaka if my eel can't handle the smaller spaces of the 34g Solana also. Now the search is on for the black sponge and black sun corals.

Ok finally won my bids on 3 white flower pots from Austin aqua farms, I'm going to hunt for a black crinoid also. Trying to convince my wife to give up the Osaka because it's deeper for the eel but we'll see lol.

The hammers have kind of lost their whiteness so Idk if they will be a permanent edition and the white tip bubble has a red base so it will be weeded out eventually also. I think the white flower anemones are the brightest white over all. Unfortunately my black clowns jumped the first night and the can't be replaced by New ones due to their large size relative to the anglar. I'm going to get either dominoes or white stripe damsels. (It's ok if they are snacks). This tank is having some serious ups and downs right out the gate.
