Coral Keeper
Reef Keeper
Well about 6 months ago I got a 28 gallon HQI Nano-Cube and built a stand for it. Here are a few things that I copied and pasted about the Nano-Cube.
"Comprehensive, compact aquarium system designed for the nano reef enthusiast. The new 28 gallon Nano-Cube HQI system maintains the stylish, clutter-free appearance of an integrated aquarium setup but boasts the power and capabilities of larger, custom aquariums. The Nano-Cube HQI is a new class of nano reef systems designed to satisfy the specific conditions necessary to successfully house hard corals, small polyp stony (SPS) corals, and clams. Enjoy advanced features including, 150 watt 14000°K HQI metal halide lighting, 3-stage filtration, counter-current protein skimmer, nocturnal LED lighting, alternating wavemaker, 532 gph flow rate, (4) built-in cooling fans, and more. Glass aquarium with rounded corners for seamless panoramic viewing. Measures 18" x 22" x 22" high.
Features:
* 150 watt 14000°K HQI metal halide lighting
* (4) Nite-Vu LED lighting with separate power cord
* (2) UL-Listed Accela Powerheads (266 gph each for a 532 gph total)
* (2) Directional flow nozzles
* (1) Ocean Pulse Duo - Alternating wavemaker
* (4) Integrated cooling fans (3,000 RPM's)
* Counter current protein skimmer with air pump
* 3-stage filtration with removable media basket
* Center overflow system
* Designated area for a heater
* Flame retardant ABS canopy housing
* Thermal protector for canopy (Auto Shut Off protection)"
I did a few mods to the tank such as: put a light in the back for chaeto, raised the hood 2.5 inches and added a fan in the back. Here are a few pictures.
