I have wanted to do one of these tanks for a long time and a pet store close to my house was having a big sale and was about to pick the tank up for $70. Plans have changed several times since I got it. The first setup was to run either a Aqua Illuminations Nano or Prime in the factory hood but I started looking you just couldn't get the coverage I wanted like that. I decided to remove the top off of the tank and will be purchasing a Radion Xr15w Pro. As for the aquascape I kept trying to build something I like but just had a hard time working inside through the small hole. Main reason I removed the top. I ended buildin my aquascape into one solid piece so if I needed to remover for some reason I could. Finally for flow I am using an MP10wes and will be ordering the new quiet driver for it in a few day.
This is a picture of my first aquascape.
This is my final aquascape and fell in love with it. (The light that is on it is temporary)
As of right now I am on day 3 of my cycle and I am using Dr. Tims One and Only. I added the Ammonium Chloride to bring the tank to 2ppm to start the cycle. Hopefully using this product will shorten the cycle time. Everything I have read about it says that everyone who uses it has good luck so figures crossed.
As for stocking I know I am going to put a pair of Black Ice Clowns. I know it's a little much for such a small tank but I intend on doing a 2 gallon water change every week. As for the clean up crew I'm am not to sure on yet. If you guys have any input please feel free to let me know.
