My 20 gal reef

Hi I thought I'd start a thread about my reef tank. My reef has been up and running for 3 months now and every thing is going great. I have tons of ? I'll be asking through out this thread. First of all my tank-

Tank 20 gal tall
refugium - AquaClear110 mod -chaeto/LR
Heater- 150watt Stealth Heater
Protein skimmer- Bak-Pak CPR(solved the micro bubble problem in the DT)
Power heads- 1-Koralia2 that’s all I need cus that 110 AC covers the needed flow.
Lights-Odyssea with 95watts of T-5s I know they had bad reviews in the past but for the price I'll try them out and so far no problems.

As for live rock a mix of all sorts, and how much -I just keep adding tell I like the looks of it and a place for all my corals.

Corals-
Birds Nest
3 different Zoanthid colonies
Torch (watch out for these guys in a nano will win every battle)
Assorted mushrooms with 1 Ricordea
Green Star Polyps
Kenya weeds I'm mean tree's
Xenia
Candy Canes
Frags of a Plate Montipora
huge unknown SPS

Hermits/snails added every other week lose about 3 snails and 5 hermits every 2 weeks.
1- clown

I test my water never I do a 25% water change every other week. I know that’s bad I got to get into a habit of testing defiantly in a Nano.
Here are pics of my tank.

your tank is awesome, i was thinking about turining one of my 20's into a small reef, you think you could give me a rundown of everything you did, any and all advice, stuff like that, im as good as freshwater right now, haha. Maybe in a PM or an email so i dont deviate from the thread, again, your tank is inspiring, obviously,=]

Easiest way to post a picture is to start a photobucket account (free) and then post the links provided here.

Nice tank! : )

You said you give your tank some snails and crabs every week... Is this because you are feeding the corals?
