Wanted to show off my 12g nano

theyammieguy · 12/09/2009, 07:07 PM

Not sure how many of yall visit the nano forum here on RC so I wanted to be a show off and post a picture of it. (:

vetdog · 12/09/2009, 07:17 PM

nice set up! What kind of lighting do you have in there? Are you supplementing?

theyammieguy · 12/09/2009, 07:24 PM

2x 24w combo. Stock lights for the jbj 12g deluxe. I think the only thing suffering from the low light are my candy canes.

I'm not supplementing alk or anything like that.

Rybren · 12/09/2009, 07:57 PM

Very nice

theyammieguy · 12/09/2009, 07:58 PM

Thank you. Been restocking it for the past month and a half. Now to let everything grow.

Pimps · 12/09/2009, 07:59 PM

Awesome! May I ask what fish that is on the bottom left (red)?

saltedwater · 12/09/2009, 08:00 PM

flamehawk

theyammieguy · 12/09/2009, 08:01 PM

Flame hawkfish

chartwell · 12/09/2009, 08:34 PM

I really like how you have the rockwork in sort of a half circle -looks great!

theyammieguy · 12/09/2009, 08:36 PM

Thanks. I've never really liked it. I can't wait to get my 58g, I already have a vision of the way I want my rock.

fstlane4me · 12/09/2009, 09:27 PM

I love your zoas.how well do they grow in your nano.I've been thinking of setting up a nano for my softies.

Squanto804 · 12/09/2009, 10:44 PM

Looks Awesome!

FlyinggFish · 12/09/2009, 11:16 PM

Your tank is 12 gallon? Hope that's enough room for the fish!

ludnix · 12/09/2009, 11:20 PM

Hawkfish are like to move around a lot so 12g might be on the small side for him.

How long have you had the feather dusters? I've always had good luck with them but you might want to consider dosing phytoplankton to keep them well nourished in a tank of that size.

philosophish · 12/10/2009, 12:29 AM

Have any snails hermits or shrimp hiding in there? If so, how is the flame hawkish towards them?

theyammieguy · 12/10/2009, 06:05 AM

I've only had the zoa's for about a month. I've noticed one new polyp on the little one up front on the left.

theyammieguy · 12/10/2009, 06:18 AM

I asked cap'n before I got the hawkfish. It took him a couple days to settle in but he's been bouncing all over the rock and is starting to follow my finger when I move it around the glass.

Ludnix, I use oyster feast, DT's phytoplankton, mysis and brine shrimp in my tank, and I think its called cyclop eeze

SecGenGSX · 12/10/2009, 07:27 AM

Very nice and clean looking tank. Love the feather dusters too. Thanks for sharing.

theyammieguy · 12/10/2009, 07:32 AM

thanks, I might add one more to the left side. either that or a coco worm.

Sugar Magnolia · 12/10/2009, 10:01 AM

That looks really nice! I also like the rockwork in that half circle.

podcar · 12/10/2009, 07:46 PM

Very Cool! I wish mine looked that good.

theyammieguy · 12/10/2009, 07:50 PM

It could. Just go to your LFS and spend some money. Lol.

I got tired of looking at shrooms for the past year and restocked my tank.

iwishtofish · 12/11/2009, 10:19 AM

Definitely worth showing off! Nice job. Are you going to move everything to the 58g when that is set up?
