New 20gal long FO build

[elithelion]

So I stopped by petsmart while Christmas shopping and low and behold I found a nice looking coral insert for 40% off! So I grabbed it and a 20gal long for $60.

For equipment I'm gonna try to find an ac70 or equivalent, a 30" light that I found on amazon for $30 and then a diy ATO.

Here's some pictures of the tank. I'm thinking about building it into the bookshelf in the living room.

Got the tank set up in my bedroom. Picked up the stand on sale for $20

Just a usual CUC, probably a cleaner shrimp, and a pair of clowns

Set up the tank today. I used live sand and some LR from my frag tank. Hopefully there won't really be a cycle. If there is ill just move the clowns to the frag tank. Plan on doing 2gal water change a day.

Ended up putting an emperor 400 on the back. I'm really surprised by how quiet and sleek it is
