what time are you using?

What time? What do you mean?

How that many fish in 5 gal

Heavy filtration, a lot of rock and sand for bacteria to grows I’m using a canister filter. I’ve had a 5 gallon in the past with 4 fish in there.

Cool I have 15 gal with 4 to but I want to add one more

What is the fish and the size of them?

I have two clowns a watchman goby and a small dragonette

That blue fish poppin hard in there! Nice setup dude

I know right! Thank you!

Wow that little 5 gallon is looking super vibrant! I love how the yellow and white clownfish pops against the red macroalgae and those soft coral patches on the sand look happy too. That kind of color really makes the tank glow. Do you find the flow setup works well for your corals in such a small volume? Sometimes I struggle to keep enough water movement without blasting everything around. Also curious what lighting you’re running because that color on the softies and the macro is stunning. I’m guessing you got some good PAR hitting the sand bed too, which helps those polyps open so

Yes so the canister filter takes the water and pushes it back in and honestly it’s worth the investment also I direct it toward the glass so it bounces of and spreaders even waves and everything is happy!
