33 Gallon Long Tank
Well, here it is, the update. This was how it looked right before I took it down. I'll be receiving my 20 gallon furniture stand with storage space from drfoster&smith, so i'm sticking with two 20 gallon longs instead of this one. Anyway, the reason why I loved this 33 gallon was because it's so low and since it's not that high, the tank doesn't require such intense lighting... though I do have metal halides running on it lol. On the right side, i took out most of the rocks to place zoanthids(mostly) on it and i kept the left side with a lot of rocks for fish to take rest and refuge in. Well, turns out my shrimps like that area more than my fish. 33 Gallons are great, you can play around with it a lot to however you want to aquascape it and it doesn't take a lot of space. This is actually running inside my room. No refugium. All I added was ESV two component and Brightwell Magnesion every other day. Here are the corals I had growing which will transfer over to my new setup. (btw, i'll be making a video of my new 20 gallon set up soon)

CORALS: Trumpet Corals, Kenya Tree, Starburst Polyps, Orange and Brown Zoos, Pulsing Xenias, Orange Ricordea, Australian Big Polyp Blastomussa, Wellsophyllia, Original Mummy Eye Chalice, Miami Hurricane Chalice, Bazooka Joe Chalice, Green Duncans, Aussie Duncans, Aussie Dendrophyllia, Bubblegum Monster Chalice, Pink Watermelon Chalice, Rastas, PURPLE HORNETS(cost me an arm), Eagle Eyes, Rainbows, Radioactive Dragon Eyes, RED HORNET(cost me a leg), Devil's Armor, Chong Bongs, Nuclear Greens, Orange Cap and Purple Deaths... i think that's about it lol.

can a metal hallide be used for freshwater ,and what kind of effect will it give? please reply.

[ShinLa83]

@iownudie108 I don't keep any freshwater setups, sorry. I don't even remember the last time i had one lol

[ShinLa83]

@iownudie108 Trust me, go with saltwater if you're going to spend money on Metal Halide. It costs a lot initially, but you have it going, it's pretty cheap to maintain

[BlazinNitro16]

Hey awesome tank dude!!!!!! what kind of lights are you running there?

[ShinLa83]

@BlazinNitro16 70watt JBJ K2 Viper Metal Halide :)

[jefferzbooboo]

@iownudie108 Metal Halides give off alot of heat, and that intense of a light isn't needed for freshwater unless you have some high wattage plants.

[ReefAdvicer]

@iownudie108 yes but you shouldnt because it will make algae grow like crazy so i wouldnt use it but i know of people that have

[Supertasticaquatics]

@iownudie108 It would be great for a hightech setup such as an iwagumi tank or maybe a dutch style tank, stem tank, etc. Otherwise it would be an algae magnet. The shimmer is great but it can look unnatural in a lot of planted setups unless you get the layout just right.

WoW

[ljturner2009]

@iownudie108 yes you can but they cost more then the normal fixtures and its way more light then you need
