Hi all,
starting on my new venture, so any advise would be great, I know already that it will be a challange as a small tank can change so fast, here is a list of what i will be using.

Tank : Aqua medic Yasha Nano 36L .
I will be putting about 5kg of live rock.
50w heater
filter media
and thats about it that i can think of,
if you guys can think of anything else please help me out.
the tank will be mostly a coral tank with a pair of clown fish.

The thing about small tanks is that you need to have supplies always on hand,, salt water and nitrite and ammonia de-toxifyer etc. But you seem to be well aware of it so that's a good start... make sure you get some test strips or a more full on test kit, but don't burn out of testing cause your in it for the long haul with a nano reef tank   good luck keep us informed with pics etc.

i like the new API test card...... looking good so far, keep an eye on the ammonia and nitrite in the first couple of days and we'll see if we get a spike.
