New corals

For corals, I decided on a pulsating xenia and some zoanthids.

For lighting, I will be using a 65 watt 50/50 24" light fixture from coralife

This light should provide over 3 watts of light per every gallon that's in my tank. For corals, a tank should have a minimum of 2 watts per gallon of either power compact, t5, or metal halide light.

Change of plans

Well, I've decided that rather than upgrading my 20 gallon, I wanted to turn my 20 gallon into a reef!
