Snowsurfers D&D 24G Nano

[Snowsurfer]

Finally got it up and running. Although i currently have a mantis shrimp living in my rock. Ive tried traps and failed. Ive even took the rock out and dropped it in a bucket of cold RO water to flush it out. Its still here even after that.

My plan is to keep zoo's mushrooms and a few other softies. A pair of seahorses and maybe 2 pipefish.

The position of the tank is right next to my sofa so ive made it to be viewed from the front and from the left.

Have not changed anything about the nano yet except removing the sponges.

Contains 1 bag of fine Argonite live sand and 10kgs of live rock.

Re your mantis: I've read several times that squirting soda water into it's hole will persuade it to come out pretty smartish.

No idea its quite small at the moment though. Prob about an 1" and dark in colour not sure if its brown or black. Never comes very far out the hole.
