Hello my names Jordan and im Ten.

My dad (Rockstar) has given me his Nano tank which i have been looking after now for 2 months.

I added my first Fish last week a pyjama wrasse to go along with the snails and hermit crabs already in there.

I know it looks bare at the moment but he has promised to buy me some corals from the Next Frag night for me.


Here with some help from my dad is a couple of pictures.

Looks like your dad's got you off to a good start, what type of corals are you planning on keeping?

Keep up the good work Jordan

For some reason anything red in a marine tank seems to be expensive i think it's something to do with the depth they live at in the sea but not 100% sure. :D
