Started Mini Bow 2.5 Pico Reef!

what kind of sanils?
bumblebees stay pretty small and as you can tell by the name have yellow and black stripes on the shell i would do maybe like 3 of the and one nassarius

astreas? They are easy for me to get. I need to do some more research I suppose. I can also get some nassarius.

Can someone post a link that tells me about different species of snails?

liveaquaria.com has alot of cataloge for SW fish.

Thanks. I'm going to go look at snails this afternoon, and if I see some that I like I will add a few, unless you all think it is too soon. I may pick up another frag too if I see something cool.

if the tank is cycled enough for the corals why not the snails?
or do you mean is it too soon after adding stock to add more?
either way i say no, as long as you monitor levels and change water accoringly you should always be fine.

I meant stocking too quickly. My water is testing out pretty good so I think I can safely say that the tank is cycled.

Bought Coralife 18W fixture on my lunch break today, more pics coming when I figure out how to set it up, lol.

That looks pretty sweet I love your zoo's defenetly frag some for me when it gets going. Maybe you could do a tiny brittle star? Bumblebee snails would also be pretty sweet since you would be able to see them almost all the time The prob is when you put them into a big tank they tend to dissapear.

Hmmm... I saw bumblebee snails on Liveaquaria, but I can't seem to find any around here. I did add 3 nassarius snails, though, and 2 more frags. Pics are coming this evening after I get off work.

 

[BIGgourami]

i didn't think that frags would add too much to the bio load. or shrimp. i thought th big killer was just fish.

Nice! Looking forward to the new pictures! I find pico/nano reef intriguing.
