Hey guys...you might have (probably not) seen that Im planning on replacing the 15G hex I have right now with two 20G long tanks. Now before someone suggests "if you can afford two 20G why dont you just get a 40G" or whatever...due to the size I have and the space I want it to fit in, thats what I decided on...so the tank sizes really aren't optional. EVERYTHING else is up in the air...since I haven't bought any equipment.
Only requirements are that between the two of them I have some LR, a firefish, two nassarius snails and a hermit crab to transfer over from the 15. I think in one tank I'd like a pair of firefish...so if you think you'd add anything to a 20G long with a pair of firefish a hermit and a snail, let me know. I'd like to try a little clown goby again...doesn't have to be right now...but its a thought. I could probably keep the 15 up as a qtine tank for awhile on the other side of the room.
I haven't decided if the tanks should be plumbed together or if there'd be any point in doing that since they're next to each other sitting on the same level and both very visible. I'll be mounting a shelf of some sort above them to hang lighting and do some kind of a hood that I can move or get past to do maintenance. Haven't decided what lighting so thoughts on that would be appreciated too. I'd like at least one tank to have some type of corals or what not that require more lighting...
Anyway...thanks in advance for any ideas
