    well last week i just got a promotion, so now i have enoug extra $$ around to keep another hobby goin.

    Im thinking of just getting a small nano to get in my home office. still deciding on a sweet little pico reef or a small planted tank. ive looked into the cadlights mini series, as well as some different Mr. Aqua rimless tanks, and the ecopico. any opinions needed.

    not really wanting to do an ecopico even though they have great reviews, it just seems too.... main stream you know? i want to get a unique nano that you wont see many other places.

    also want sps capable lighting, thats really why the cadlights is out, that fixture is winpy and probably not too easy to upgrade since its so thin.

    any input welcome.

    I just got a new eco on ebay for $50 shipped, IMO, the price makes it too hard to beat, but I do like some of the pricier ones better, but for $5o, it was hard to turn down;)

    Ya well I kinda want something that's not the norm, I'm thinking maybe an extra long, or extra tall mr. Aqua rimless nano. But then again I would also need to get some stuff with them not being ready to go setups.

    Divider and make it both
    Or a planted marine tank/macro tank lighting those tanks will cost a good amount.

    Looks like a good choice.

    This is on your business account- you said it was for your office- right?
    ;-)

    Keep on reefing!
