Mike and Cindys budget busting Nano in 90

[CindyL]

Very nice, looking forward to updates - Did you mention which vendor you ordered the tank from online?

We had it made custom from a local vendor.

Wow , this is awesome . I do have one concern though. With the glass fixtures around the PAR bulbs , do they have enough room to "breathe" , or cool ? I had to take the cover off of one of my lamps a while back because it caused the bulb to over heat and shut down. I'm sure you have thought of this , but I just thought I would give a heads up. Other than that , I am really liking this build .


Good Luck

Lights have been running for 4 months with no issues. Thanks for the thought.

this setup is insane I love it!

Well day late on water but I added equipment and it is a lot like 10 lbs of stuff in a 5 lbs bag. I dont fit well in a 55 gallon stand so that makes it fun. Going to buy the skimmer tomorrow. As soon as the water clears I will start to stock the tank.
I wanted to run GFO and carbon so I built this out of parts I had

I built this for the dosing tubes I like the way it turned out.

And water! About time.

Nice looking Clowns!

Everything going good. Sump has all filters macro live rock and top off. GFO and carbon are running good. Water is at temp. So with the live rock and live sand should be good to go and I will add stuff to day!

I am insanely jealous of this build, you have given me an idea of what I'd like to do with a partition in my house when I have the funds to do it! I will definitely be following your build throughout the summer

Added frags from my sump

Bicolor birds nest $10
Blasts $5 per head $15
Orange digi 2" $20
Purple digi $10
Idaho grape Monti cap $10

Total of $65 so far
Let me know if any one thinks a price should be different

Also got a law mower Blenny today great personalities. Managed to pick up other frags too dipped them then put them in my big sump to make sure no dip was left then I will put them in this little tank.
