I'm curious what store sold you the stuff and told u a week before u can add fish. :letitallo

I disagree with people and the fact that poeple say small tanks are too hard. You can keep a 5g rock anemone and zoa tank and avoid all maintenance to it besides topping off and have everything look great for about a month. Small tanks are not hard param wise besides P04 from too much waste in tank from overstocking. 5g of water is not much even for a small goby and some zoa's to pollute quick, which leads to a second cycle and stuff from overpopulation of bacteria without proper waste removal which causes peoples tanks to crash, which leads to people not thinking a tank can cycle 2-4 times in a small waste heavy tank and blame it on their params because the cycle is over by the time they check for ammo and stuff. Also the people that used to say params went crazy in small tanks never used any good addatives (clacium cubes or just salt water changes) to renew essensial nutrients and also never had any filtration of any type besides flow and some carbon (maybe) or bio balls which added to problems.

I have not seen a post anywhere lately with the new nano skimmers and different ways of filtrating a tank stating that nano tanks are hard to keep because of salinity and param fluctuations. But yeah, i wouldn't recommend it to a person just starting out because you have to really understand it to make it work the right way.

I miss my nano.

:smash:So when is it that you are stopping by my place anyway?;)
