That looks aweseom!
I wanna get a nano

Looks real nice, is it kind of oval on the front side? Looks that way...

Oh and my tank is now filled up and I noticed something is growing on that far right rock....Hopefully my sucker will get it within a day or 2 or I'll take it and clean it.

Yeah, thats how nanos are set up. They are like convex in the front. Great little tanks.

Looks good, Rich.

That second picture looks like the lighting they have at like zoo's and stuff.

Nice Snake and TtoTHEmaX!

My buddy just started a 120 gallon saltwater! Very VERY involving and very cool!
I love the blue l.e.d.'s that look like moonlight! So cooool!

Ponch - The whitish/blue light is much more natural and brings out the true colors of the fiah and stone.

Snake, you bought that used, right? What did you pay for it?

So should I be looking at something like the $30 setup from these people?

I will get Pictures of it this week.
Posting for a friend.

I got it for just over 100 with the live sand, moon lights, and replacement lights, sponges, filters and some misc stuff. The guy upgraded to a 50-60 or something along those lines tank.

I like the bowedout front glass, it makes the tank look big when your looking directly at it. Sort of magnifies everything inside. I've been going to a store on Devon and Cumberland asking alot of questions and reading some Nano forums. Getting the hang of it I think for now. I just wanna make sure everything is good before I put fish in it. I tested the water and like the guy at the store said, I see spikes in PH, Nitrate, alkaline levels since I added the rock. Gonna see what it's like on wednesday and maybe do a 20% water change. Glad I got 10 gallons of RO water when I went to the store..... =)


I think maybe intial start-up is expensive for salt water, then routine care might cost some here and there. But, enjoying it so far.

agreed!

I noticed that there are some fire worms growing in the tank too. Scared the crap outta me when I was moving around snail shells.........If I woulda swung my arm around more in the tank, I probally would have knocked it over.

What in the world is a fire worm?

It's actually called a bristle worm.
Thats not my tank just a pic of one. Some people say they are good and some say they'll kill shrimp.....

Whoa, scary looking. Is it harmful?

only if it lays eggs in a open cut or scrape!

WTF?!?

Those things are scary looking...:o:

Guy at the store said if I were to try to grab it by hand, it would burn like hell. One of the reasons for the "fire" term. Mine is about 2-3 inches long and blood red.

Time to get the pliers, LOL

no doubt. =)

Damm Snake I ilike that... The moon light looks killer.

I have a 55 gallon tank in storage woudl love to get it going but no energy to do so....
