Eurogti's Nanobox/Synergy pico build...Nano in 90!! New pics and scoly

Well here is my submission to the party! It's a acrylic synergy pico tank. The tank is a joint venture between synergy and my buddy Dave from nanobox reef. The tank has custom blue rim, and the light has been custom built to match. Finishing up rock work today and should have it wet!
The tank is going to be a minimalist build! Super clean and super simple.
Enjoy the pics!


Light out of the box. New array with the limes

Thank you! I'm loving it too. This is going to be my 5th reef tank. I'm hoping I can put all my knowledge together and have a cool little pico.

Alright got it wet! Scape is in. I convince my wife to go with something a little simpler. I am a huge fan of minimalist aquascapes. I like how it came out
Just have to get my mp10 in it now and call it done! I'm running this tank without mechanical filtration, and maybe even fishless. Worst case if I have problems I will throw a canister and lily pipes! I have decided no sump. I want this thing to be simple. Don't they say lps likes dirty water anyways

Here's when I first scaped it before water. Thought it was a little too simple so I added a couple trails. Excuse the cloudy water!

Awesome aquascape....... Loving the minimalist approach. Are you thinking purely Lps and softies?

On this tank yes. I have my 70g zeovit tank which is 95% sps. I might throw in a frag or 2 of sps to see how it does. I want to keep this tank simple though. I don't mind doing water changes every week or anything like that. I just don't want the build to get to tech. God knows my other tank is tech enough for the both of em. I also want the challenge of a true nano or pico tank. So many of these nano tanks now have the whole 9. To me it kind of takes the fun out of it. I was a true and simple pico. Rely on biological filtration and good stocking choices. Thanks for checking out the build!

How do you like that led puck?

How do you like that led puck?

I love it. This light has the new nanobox array. It's a mixture of royal blue, blue, neutral white, uv, cayenne, and the new lime LEDs. It really gives it a awesome color. The look is amazing. There is a review on the new LEDs on reefbuilders. The LEDs are Phillips luxeon rebel, and simeled. I don't know if this new array is already open to the public, but I'm sure if you contact Dave he will take care of you.

Baller!

I know Rapid has a puck out with the new lime. I cant wait to see the color of the corals.

Flow seems sufficient which is awesome! No powerheads in tank.
