28 gallon nano cube hqi build

Rawby · 06/22/2011, 09:46 AM

I have had a 20 gallon for about 6 monthes and after filling it up with coral i have decided to upgrade to a 28 gallon nano for more light and more space. This is my first build i have posted and i have tried to take pictures along the way.

The last picture is my 20 gallon. Im gonna move the corals from there into my nano once it cycles.

mine didnt actually come with a skimmer so im gonna buy one. Any suggestions on a good one that fits in the nano. I have also been having some heating issues with the water it stays pretty stable at 84 which is hot. I called jbj and they are sending me two fans which hopefully will do the trick.

The water has finally cleared up enough now also to take pictures of the rock i just put in. It only about 25 pounds but i have about 20 pounds in my 20 gallon which im gonna put in so that should be enough. I got a great deal on the rock it was $80 for 25 pounds and it has lots of feather dusters and it has a few mushrooms, xenia and a polp coral which will hopefully make it through the cycle.
