I have been thinking about setting up an nano reef my tank is 46x30x35cm it holds 11 gallons i think the equipment i plan to use is as follows:
A big External filter that hold Three gallons which will have rowaphos, carbon and filter wool.
5-8 kg of fiji live rock
4-6cm deep sand bed
2-3x 15 watt marine white tubes
a heater obviously
R.O water

I want to keep:

1x pyjama wrasse
1x Clown fish
and some yellow polyps

I dont want to spend a load of money on any protein skimmer and i dont want one of them air driven internal skimmers so do you think this will work.

ok, yeh go for as much rock as possible as its actually harder to maintain stable water in a small tank than large. the fish u want are ok thou maybe go for a pair of clowns as they prefer they own company. what type of clown were you thinkin of?

i would still advise an airdriven skimmer if not at least some type of protein remover , use some polyfilter
yanton is running his with out a skimmer looks good so far

ill us some polyfilter then because the air driven skimmers make the tank look ugly and take up to much room
