zoozilla May 19, 2009 Share May 19, 2009 Perfect location for the tank. Did you specifically build the shelf to hold the tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoozilla May 22, 2009 Share May 22, 2009 no it's just empty space by the main door.. Was wondering because the tank fits in that space like a glove. That set up is looking sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate May 30, 2009 Share May 30, 2009 That is a very cool location for a nano. Looks very nice so far. So are you not running and filtration? And whats the extra piece of acrylic on the top front of the tank for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capsfan May 30, 2009 Share May 30, 2009 I like this setup and how you are going with a metal halide. However, a halide might be a bit of overkill for just zoas and mushies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And whats the extra piece of acrylic on the top front of the tank for? that's mh ballast..i won't put any filteration..i will just keep it with water change from the main tank..~ Edited May 30, 2009 by moga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L8 2 RISE July 15, 2009 Share July 15, 2009 i had to change my pants when i saw that tang, then i saw what you said under the pic Same here , I saw it, and then did a quick double take and pretty much dove closer to the computer screen to check. My brother was in the room and thought I'd hurt myself or something and asked what happened . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capsfan July 15, 2009 Share July 15, 2009 Yes, i will put a sand this weekend...i may get the small protein skimmer as well..~ Awesome, I think the tank will look twice as good with a good sandbed. Do you have anything but corals? A shrimp or something would look nice in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moga July 16, 2009 Author Share July 16, 2009 (edited) I put little sand bed for now.. I will put one little fish..(don't know what kind yet..)..and a shrimp... Edited July 16, 2009 by moga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
