Yup, you should definitely NOT get the 2005 model as they are prone to problems. Try to get the 2006 model, I think nanotuners.com has it.

Another nano you might be interested in is the Finnex M-Tanks, they have all the bells and whistles AND they come with a built in protein skimmer and they are made of Acrylic, they come in 20 and 32G models. check it out.

20-50G AGA custom overflow w/ 10-20G sump/refuge in the works... (SW is EXPENSIVE!! :mad: )

75G FW Planted Jardini (can't afford arowanas )

5G South American Biotope

I don't have anything setup yet and already I'm hooked! I feel sorry for my wallet.

I am thinking of setting up a nano as well. I'm a little hesitant though based on the bigger is better and easier terminology. Less room for error in small tanks!

Awsome
I wish I had the time and money for another tank. Especially a nano. I have to be satisfied with the three I have running now.
That is really going to be nice.

Default great nano tank deal

I just picked up a Oceanic 30 Gal. cube and stand for $176 at PetSmart, they are no longer going to carry the 30G cube and they are wheeling and dealing them out the door! Makes a fine Nano with plenty of room for a fuge under stand.
