Start of my new Nano - Update

[whaase]

Here is my new tank. It is a 20g long. I will be moving most things from my 90g into this tank. The back is painted woth 10 coats of Krylon Fusion - Navy paint. Light are Coralife Aqualight 130w. Stand was bought at Rona, the stain didn't turn out the color I wanted but oh well. I'm still waiting for the legs for the light.

Here it is lights off.

Is a Coralife Aqualight - 2x65w. Both bulbs are 50/50 (10k and Actinic).

Here is where I got it from

Can't say enough about the great service from this new company! :smile:

I'm planning a Aquaclear 300 (with surface skimmer), powerhead (not sure which one just yet), Ebo 100w heater... not sure yet what else. Probably build a fuge with the left over acrylic I had from building my other skimmer.

I will be moving most things from my 90g into this tank.
How come, Walter - changing tanks?

Well, a couple reasons. My tank was downstairs, nobody ever goes down there to enjoy it... I didn't have room for the 90g upstairs so I decided to go smaller, easier to work in 12" opposed to 24" depth :biggrin: Less/smaller equiptment etc...

The tank is looking really nice. Nice mushrooms love the red one. Nice collection of Zoo's also. Are they hard to keep?

Thanks, and no. Zoo's don't require special feeding, they grow on there own. Some grow faster and some are slow growers.
