Hey Rev. Did we hit your min yet?

This could be fun if we get more on here.

Anyone else want to play in our club?

Very cool. Nice photos. I love the hammer.

Can you give us some info on your tank. How long has it been running, any mods, and more?

Nano-Newb1983 · May 23, 2011

that is one loaded nano lol.. looks great

MimicOcto8 · May 24, 2011

thanks guys. its an extremely simple nano. only LR in the rear chambers. deep sand bed for a nano. everything else is all stock. the lights are well over 2 years old lol no heater no skimmer, stock return pump everything is super simple. water change once every 2 weeks. its been up and running for 1yr and 5months.

I just started a 28g hqi nano a couple of months ago. I really like it but getting a bit worried about the heat this summer!

I just did the nanotuners actinic addon last night an I really love the addition. Also running an upgraded media basket, but I am considering ditching the media basket for a skimmer a I have just added some SPS.

+1 on the water changes. Keep the media basket. If you realy want a skimmer, you should be able to add one and keep the basket.

Let me know how the lighting upgrade works out for you.

We would love to see photos here as you progress.

Here is an update: I lost me GBTA last week. That sucks. Howeve, I got it out of my tank before it nuked the tank. I had to remove my very large chunk of LR to get the gbta out as it was suck to the rock. The upside is I'm diging the look it left me with. I may just break up the big chunk into smaller pieces.

Thank you! Thank you!

We will take this as a challange, and not fail.

BTW. If you going to hand out a premium membership, I hope I'm on the short list.

i heard a easy way to get a anemone too detatch from rock is to use a ice cube and rub near the foot, and/or baste with ice cold water

Those ways do work. However, he was already turning to slime. So I just put him and rock into my LR curing bucket and turned a powrhead on. He came off in about a hour.
