marks nano build.... starting over(livestock suggestions?)

What kinda filtration are you working with man? I'm thinking about setting up a nano here in the next few months, so I'm just getting a few idea's from other people right now. Still looking for the right tank to pick..

 

well this would be a great little tank to do, except the filtration is like an in tank power filter so it takes up a bit of space but it works for now, im probably gonna switch to a hang on filter pretty soon.

 

i found out an lfs around here sells par30's, i dont know where they get them but they have them over their tank with sps. should i do that? it would save the hassle of shipping.

 

I would if its what you want.

 

so far this is the list off the stuff i need to get

-par30
-lamp clamp
-palm filter
-couple pounds of live rock
-nano skimmer

does this look good?

 

Whats a palm fillter? Just ditch that little filter it csme with and put in that protein skimmer I showed you. It takes up the same space, filters better and gives you flow.

 

im gonna strive to put as little equipment in the tank as possible to maximize the amount of swimming space, if i get a skimmer ill just get a little hang on back one. the palm filter is a pico power filter that just hangs on the back of the tank, or i may get the little canister filter that bioreefdude suggested.

 

i have a guy on craigslist thats interested in trading a par30 for my existing aquarium light. dont ask me why but im stoked!

 

I'd invest in that little canister, you could put some biopellets in or something.

 

ya im thinking carbon as well
