That looks sweet, insta-nano. I started up my 55 the same way, it's the way to go. I think you have enough rock, just need the Corals to get bigger

Beautiful tank. Now the question is... are you going to leave the hight of the rocks where it is?
If so it would be cool to put 1 taller coral right on top.

Well the tank temp was getting a bit much for me. Within a few hours the tank was hitting almost 84 degrees. I was looking into getting an iceprobe chiller but they're a little out of my league at the moment. So I thought I'd try out the coralife aqualight mounting legs to get the light off the tank. It worked like a charm. The tank holds at a steady 79 degrees. Not bad for $15
Of course the requisite pic

So I went to OA last week and got 4 new colors of zoos and 2 new ricordeas
The tank is getting pretty full now, although I suppose I could cram one more rock in there if I really wanted to  I switched out the minijet 404 (106gph) for a maxijet 600 (160gph). Its kind of weird going from a full on SPS tank with major flow to a nano where you don't really need everything whipping around the tank. Nevertheless, I upgraded the pump and everything is sort of gently wafting in the breeze now which makes me happy. Also one of my neon gobies which was being harassed by a sharknose goby managed to make it into my overflow and down into the sump. I figured I'd let him hang out in the nano for awhile and so far I think he is a bit confused by the lack of flow as well I put his little nori PVC in there and he was eating like a champ so it certainly hasn't affected his appetite.
