With the increasing variety of AIO Nano-Reefs available today and their affordability, it’s not surprising how common these little reef units are. Not too long ago, stumbling onto a tiny 10-gallon mini-reef was somewhat rare and intriguing. It used to require DIY’ing some lights, and perhaps a raised base to accommodate the only hang-on skimmers available at the time (they were taller than the tanks themselves).
这些天，您可以走进商店，然后在架子上捡起所有东西之一。加入一些岩石，沙子，水……然后您得到了礁石。它们不仅是新手爱好者的出色入门坦克，而且还制造出了很棒的物种坦克。可悲的是，普通的Ocellaris/Percula/Designer小丑品种往往是爱好中最过时的纳米菜。考虑到它们主要是被俘虏的育种，它们是一个令人钦佩的选择。但是还有许多其他有趣的纳米鱼被忽略了。这是一些我认为有趣的纳米添加的物种。
Barnacle and PikeBlennies: These guys are pure entertainment. They aren’t collected all that frequently, but are pretty affordable when they are available. Both will take up residence in small tubes or pockets in the rockwork or sandbed. Pike blennies will defend their hole with a dramatic display of the dorsal fin and a gaping mouth. It’s pretty wild to witness. Barnacle blennies are a little more subdued, but will surprise you with their torpedo speed when food is floating by.
Barnacle and Pike- 蛙鱼：虽然它们不一定是纳米大小的，但它们不需要很多空间。青蛙很乐意用其他纳米大小的坦克伴侣制作零食。因此，它们最适合物种系统。但是他们是一定的
ly interesting enough to deserve their own display.
- Eviota/TrimmaGobies: These tiny gobies come in a variety of colors. They are fun to spot among the corals and rockwork. Their diminutive size would make them disappear in a larger reef aquarium. Hence, they are best suited for a nano.
- Bluestripe Pipefish: A Pipefish that is attractive, stays small, and is easy to convert to frozen food. What more could you ask for? Mine has done well on a diet of cyclopeez and Nutramar Ova. If you look hard enough, you can usually find a mated pair.
- LiopropomaBasslets: We can’t all afford the stunning Candy Basslet(L. carmabi),但是还有许多其他的负担得起的美丽女孩es in this genus. I have had a Swalesi Basslet in my 180 gallon reef for years, but only see him once a week for a split second. I wish I had placed him in my nano reef , where I would probably enjoy his looks more often. These fish are tough as nails, and easy to keep.
- Dottybacks: They are notorious for being aggressive towards their tankmates, and are best suited to a species tank. If you are ok with just one fish, you can’t beat the beauty and personality of a Dottyback.
奖金编辑的选择 -plectranthias巴斯，虽然只有几何侏儒鹰P. inermisis regularly available,plectranthiaspellicieriis still one of our top-of-the-top holy grail nano reef fishes.
