To nano or not to nano? That is the question.

Nanos, in my experience, are more difficult in the beginning due to the fluctuations in EVERY aspect possible. However, once they are stabalized, they are usually easy to maintain.

I have found it more difficult to keep a nano when adding fish due to the waste buildup. There is less room for the 'lazy' factor in not doing that clean-up or water change. In this aspect, it is easier to keep a 180 gallon tank since the volume of water is more forgiving.

To answer the question about fish for a nano, I would add something in the goby family. Clown/Citron goby, catalina goby, six-line wrasse usually do well. However, I would limit it to one to two fish since they have to dispose of what they eat, know what I mean?
