My current tank is an Oceanic 58g.  The dimensions are perfect for a single metal halide pendant (provided it can handle a 3′ light spread).  The tank has been up for several years and has gone through many grown pains.  I’ve learn a lot about what not to do.  I think the key with any tank, especially smaller tanks, is to keep the water quality up as all cost.  Weekly water changes along w/ a nice protein skimmer is a must!  This tank will be taken down once the 180 is up and running.

Here are the specs on the tank:

Tank: 58G Display w/ 15G sump.

Lights: 250W MH Pendant, T5 x2 36″ actinic supplement, 2x moonlights

Filtration: DAS Protein skimmer,  Zeovit reactor, Carbon reactor (24/7)

Flow: 2 x Tunze 6025, Panworld 20 return, Vortech 40W, 3/4″ Seaswirl
