The 120 is awesome! It had an internal overflow and a closed loop already plumbed. It also had an electrical panel in the stand. I was able to get rid of two Seio 1500's, two Maxijet 900's, five...

I am sorry to post that I am going to have to drop out of the contest. I am getting a new 120 to replace my 75 and I am going to break down my other tanks so I can focus all my efforts on this one. ...

It is weired, like they are growing a second skirt. Zoanthids do not normally reproduce by splitting to my knowledge. I have never seen this before!

We have a couple of purple people eater polyps that are growing a second skirt in the nano. My wife took a few really good pictures:

I feed the tank some frozen brine last night to see if I could entice the goby out of his cave. I saw the pistol shrimp bringing out small rocks but no sign of the goby. One of the serpent stars...

I bought a Pistol Shrimp and Yashia Haze Goby yesterday afternoon on our way home from our clubs monthly meet. They started to pair up in the container while I was acclimating them. The shrimp...

I have some crazy isopods in this nano now. They devour hair algae and red slime! Since there are no fish in this tank there are no predators and the isopods are out on every surface even while the...

I took a bunch of pictures of the nano last night. It is coming along!

I an sorry to hear about your heater issue and the lost fish. Not cool at all. I have heard that could happen but have never paid that much attention. Makes me wonder about the heaters I have in...

Thanks, my daughter likes to pet her head when she is out of the water. lol.

Today I got in an order for two harlequin serpent stars. They are pretty small and should do well in this nano. I...

The crab is a female fiddler crab. Turns out that these crabs natural habitat is in a muddy mangrove area. Placing the piece of live rock up out of the water was a very good idea then. I am...

Wow! Very nice!

I finally got the overflow screened. I used two thin pieces of 1" PVC and superglued them together with the gutter guard in between. Then I can just stick that in the elbow that I use for an...

I haven't been able to get the gutter guard to stick to PVC pipe with superglue. I'm going to try again because I had a friend stop by in the middle of the project last time and I haven't gotten...

I did stick the rock in there and haven't seen her on it yet. We'll see.

I had a suggestion on our club forum about using gutter guard to screen my overflow. I bought some and will try it out...

I bought it as a 'color crab'. lol. Not sure what kind of crab she is. Very neat crab, I have seen her all over the tank. She seems to like the very top rock near the waters surface though. I am...

I added a cheapo skimmer I bought used for $30 the other day. It is working pretty good so far. I also added a little green bubble tip. I am going to give him awhile to get used to the change and...

That algae is already covering a bunch of zoos on that rock, the larger ones have been able to stretch out and open into the light. Not sure what it is but it is dying back now that it is in the new...

I added some Live Rock and a few softies last night. I fished around for some smaller rubble size pieces for the sump. I also had to place a piece of acrylic under the return pump because it was...

The glass is 1/4 inch glass. I wasn't brave enough to try 1/8 inch. ;)

Some people run a light 24/7 because they think that is a way to stop their macro algae from going 'sexual'. When Macro...
