Really its about 5 to 6 gallons because of the real estate the rock and sand take up, also the back of the tank.


Equipment:
Hydor Koralia 240 for circulation/ Will go to a MP10Wes after I break down my 55 gallon tank.
Planning to upgrade the return pump. Maybe a Cobalt MJ 400?


Lighting:
Boost PAR30 LED w/GooseNeck.
Might go with a Bright Aquatics dimmable Par 38 bulb. For coral acclimation and such.


Rockscape:
I decided against doing a bonsai in this small tank and go with a tower look to it. I still need to drill holes in the rock for the frags/etc. I did build ledges though for those frags on rocks. Pukani dry rock btw. Was populated with my existing 55 gallon tank.​


Sand:
Hawaiian Black, still like this sand but I would go with a reef flakes of some sort.


Filtration:
Polyfiber and planning to build a eggcrate media basket. Chemipure Elite and some Purigen.


Salt:
Instant Ocean.


Stocking list:
Fish:
Shrimp and goby pairs.


SPS:
I dont know if I will yet.


LPS:
Duncans
Acans
Elegance

Softies:
Assorted zoas
Assorted tree corals
Xenias
