yes it can be done and has been done.

I havent been able to take care of my little fishies and some have died.

There are about 20 lawn mower blennies and 2 damsels and sea annemonies and crabs and and a spotted puffer.

This set up is worth a small fortune.


i paid
12.00 for the tank
40.00 for the light/top
rocks are 12.00/lb 15lbs in tank
45.00 for LIVE SAND
18.00 each for blennies ( i caught them so i didnt have to pay)
20.00 for the puffer ( idid but him)
5.00 for damsels
15.00 for stone crab (purple)
30.00 for cast iron stand.
140.00 for the filter


make me a offer....no low ballers.

Tank has dirty glass (algae) and needs a tuneup to make it prestige! Has very pretty rocks and fish.

LAWN MOWER blennies are fucking awesome if you know what they are...they are all trained also. tap on the glass and they all come out of the rocks. You never know how many you got till you tap on the glass!

Too many salt water fish for a 10 gallon....saltwater tanks should start at ATLEAST 30 gallons...2 inches of fish per 1 gallon of saltwater....that would mean you need at least a 40 gallon tank just for the blennies....I used to work for a pet store...if you need any advice before you set up another tank let me know! i'm always happy to give animal advice...

....saltwater tanks should start at ATLEAST 30 gallons...

Not true..This is the old school way of thinking.. I have had mini reefs as small as 3 gallons.. They did VERY well...But yea to many fish for a small tank..

i never had problems with my tank...i use a true filter no skimmers and my tank is banging..... clear water and hungry fish.... the only reason they really say dont put too many fish in the tank is b/c of territory but these blennies are social....

I decided to keep the tank....
