Hello, after taking an extended 20+ year break from saltwater aquariums I recently got the itch to start up a nano tank due to a co-workers passion for the hobby. The original plan was to set this tank up at work on my desk, however I ended up setting it up at home in my bar area and I'm glad I did. My fiance, kids and our dog have spent hours enjoying this little piece of the ocean. This tank has been a lot of work and the research of everything that goes into this hobby has taken over my life and I love it!

The setup:

Fluval Evo 13.5 AIO

Chamber 1 - InTank Media basket - top shelf I run filter floss - middle level the occasional Chemipure Blue and the bottom level the stock media that came with the tank.
Chamber 2 - Marine pure media gems with a few small pieces of live rock
Chamber 3 - Heater and upgraded return - just order a second heater with controller
Light - Fluval Marine 3.0
