Default My nano-cube...big switch from 180.

Okay, so since I tore down my 180, I had to have something to hold my corals until I finish my 29 but hey, this looks good enough for me...lol









So whatcha think?

Mike

Its cool...I will definitely be moving them out but when I bought the clams they were in the nano cube at a trade show. So they are back in their original home...sort of. I would like to see the hood on a DX.

I think your tank looks terrific! I love your clams too.
My husband has the 12 gl Nano DX at his office.
He wishes he had waited now till the ??20gl?? came out. But that's the way it is in this hobby, we always want another one bigger.

I don't have a pic of the whole tank. I don't think the hood looks any different. It does have 2 fans in it and 2 of the 50/50 bulbs-PC -I think its 46 watt.

We've had it a little over a month and every thing has been growing like crazy, especially the frogspawn. I guess I'm going to have to start thinning it out.

Stupid question, but is that the DX with two bulbs? I love the frogspawns...they look great! I plan to go to www.nanocutoms.com and get another bulb or the three bulb kit.

Not a stupid question at all. Yes it is. You and I were posting at the same time I was hoping I'd get my modifications done before you posted again. A few posts back I went back and added what it was and what it has.
