I really like it and I love the frogspawn, is that grape caulurpa outbreak or did you put it in?

Brandon's Reef · 02/28/2006, 08:01 PM

do you have specs?

nano10 · 02/28/2006, 08:03 PM

It's an outbreak it got in the tank my mistake and i've been battling since. Got it to a resonable amount but still trying to get the rest out.

Pretty cool.

I've always wanted to do a little nano. Seems much simpler and would be a nice contrast to a larger tank.

Brandon's Reef · 02/28/2006, 08:25 PM

lol the nano's are by no means simpler

nano10 · 02/28/2006, 08:30 PM

I don't know mine has been pretty simple. I've been lucky and haven't run into any major problems. Other then the Calurpa problem it would be nice to have a bigger tank then i'd be able put a fish in to eat it.

I am in total envy--your tank is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and that is exactly what I'd like mytank to look like!!! THAT is the lookI have in my head...

I am just starting a tank again--first time in over 14 years. I am going 20 gallon. I will save your photos to use as my model...

Waiting on rock and sand from Tampa Bay Saltwater--talked to Richard today and he said he has been diving everyday and is at work filling back orders.

Stick around. I want to pick your brain...

nano10 · 02/28/2006, 08:55 PM

Pm me if you have any questions.

Tank + lights + modded filter/HOB fuge + rock

Instead of a tank, sump, return pump, skimmer, fuge, calcium reactor, ozone/UV, closed loops, all the different powerheads, etc..

Beautiful tank. Do you ever get heat problems? It does look like you have the light a good distance above the tank (how high is it?) and its hqi so that has to help.

It's about 6" from the water line. In the winter is stays nearly steady at 79 degrees, in the summer i have to run a fan for cooling. Which im debating on a better sulution as the tank is in my bedroom the fan can be kinda loud. Any ideas?

I'm also taking a leep into sps corals. any advise on growing them in such a small tank would be helpful.
