Default And a NANO is born.... fts nov 1

well i have very slowly put together a 20G display with 10G sump.... just filled it today and no leaks so salt goes in soon... this was going to be a breeder for my cleaner shrimp but i dont know if i want this tank to be fishless.... well i still have a long cycle to go thru as the lr in there wasnt live... a week ago the rock was out side in a bucket dry.... so i guess i have plenty of time to decide what i finally want to do with this tank.... the over flow is soooooooooo ghetto... the original piece of glass was far to short so instead of cutting it out i just added a piece of glass to the top so that the water level would rise in the display... other than that the tank came out ok... i really dont mind the ghetto overflow as this tank was just one i had laying around and is a penninsula trial.... i am seeing if i like it or not.. if so i will go bigger eventually.. i will add pics tommorow...

i am also thinking this is going to be my frag tank as the lighting will be decent enough...


hardware is just and ebo heater and a oddysea return with 2 glo 2x24W hot5... oh and a euroreef rs80 skimmer...

Well its been a while and nothing has happened with this tank till today... i added two clowns... will get pics and the name tomorrow..

i guess i should add i changed the sump to a tank the same size as the display (20G) the 10 just didnt have the volume for a poweroutage...
