maybe i should make a career out of glass cleaning, hahah...even tho i have nothing in my tank i cant let any waterspots or salt creep stay on my new tank, its just to nice, i'm not going to be very happy when and if i get that first scratch ,

anyways, i couldnt deal with the barebottem look so i pulled my rock quickly last night and threw in a very thin layer of sand, maybe a 1/2 inch at the deepest spots, loooks pretty good now

Is that AC500 staying? or is it temporary?

Out of place? I never knew there was a right and wrong spot to put it.

Anyways, I really like the look.. I am using the exact same flood lamp as you. They work pretty good eh? What brand bulb do you have in there? It's super blue.. I used a 20k (DE) Ushio and it was blue, but not THAT blue... then again it could be your camera.

What are your plans for the cube? What type of coral, fish, etc ?

I ordered my cube from Gold's last Saturday (24x24x20) And I am pretty stoked to get it, I love cubes. How are you liking the cube look?

Looking good so far

i was just @ gold yesterday, i think i saw yours sitting in the back were all the frags are, pretty sick if it is yours.

the ac i'm going to take out once i get my cannister filter problem resolved, and i'm thinking about gettin maybe a sieo 620 for some more flow,

so far my plans for the tank are...
2-percs
1-bicolor blennie or midas blennie

xenia,
galaxia
maybe an acro
frogspawn or hammer coral
and thats about all i have planned so far.
i would love a clam but the tanks pretty small, and i'm not to sure on a clam in a nano.

about my bulb. not sure what type it is, it came with the ballast, i'll check into it and get back to you, and ya its SUPER BLUE, its pretty crazy,
