Walter,
You bet bet I can .
It is a 20H that I took the top trim off and ground out the back for an external overflow. It has a 20L sump (still count as a nano?) where I keep another ~25lbs of live rock, skimmer, heather, and florescent spotlight that I run on a reverse schedule. The return pump is a blueline 20hd (might be called Panworld now). I have also added a maxijet 1200 to each of the tanks to supplement circulation. After losses I have about 645gph which I hope is enough - the sand bed is easily blown around so I probably couldn't add another ph to the main. The sump is bare bottom.
Lighting is (1) 175W xm10k MH and (2) 24" VHO actinic. It is almost all complete but I still need to build a canopy for the lights.
The entire thing was financed by the sale of my 90gallon reef. And if my wife asks, yes, I broke even .

- Chad
