Welcome! How do you have your 20L setup? Lights, sump, filtration etc. Feel free to give us all the gory details. :smile:
this tank has been running for about 2 1/2 years with some rock that's been established for over 5.
it is by all means a dirty tank that's never had a water change. I run a small off brand h.o.b skimmer that does catch some off the junk as I feed heavy every other day.
I have about dozen different types of zoas but my gold dust zoas have taken over and I have well over a 150+ heads across the tank that I need to start fragging and reducing, a few of the nice ones I have are pinwheels, blue hornets, ultra blue kisses, pink zippers, and sunny d's.
I have one orange diamond goby about 2" that I bought when he was under 1 1/2", seriously the smallest one I've ever seen, I have a healthy supply of pods and I have access to more, plus he is starting to take to frozen food, when he gets much bigger he will go into my 125g fowlr.
I use a 165w led blackbox with improved spectrum over eBay versions and have nice colors and growth, I run it about 16" off the water on a 12/14/16 hour light cycle for white/blue/moons at 25%/50%/100% and have seen nothing but good results.
my ultimate goal is to actually turn this 20l into a 40b and continue the zoa garden and maybe have more fish as 20l is pretty small for most fish.
