Default New Nano at Work

Well desided to put a little nano tank in my cubicle at work, this has been quite the little project that has visitors comming by my cubicle everyday asking me questons and just to sit there and gaze at it

I started out with a little JBJ nanocube 6dx that i bought second hand off a fellow reefer here in Edmonton (on canreef)

added around 5lbs of rock and some sand, sat like that for about a week, the water i trucked in from the tank at Dad's house so i used nice established water

now i have added some softies, ( Zoo's, Open Brain, Xenia, GSP and a couple shrooms)

its looking really good and thought i would share some pics of it

Hey Mark, I really like that. Nice and clean, and I like how you've placed the corals, etc! Makes me want a nano :-)

P.S. I have those same zoanthids and I love 'em!

welol its a 6gal nanocube, has a little sump built into the back of it, quite the little system acualy

no heater, the pump and lights provide enough to keep the water at 80 degrees so thats not to bad, i want to put a little higher output pump in there, but thats just me i think
