Hey Guys. New build

7G Nano Tank
Aqua Night LED light
10lbs of Bimini Pink Sand
3lbs of rock
Bag of Bio Media from Reef tank

I built this especially for the Mantis but will add some GSP and Mushrooms, Keeping it as simple as possible. Plenty of little rocks for him to move around, 13" of 1.5" PVC at a 45 under the rock work for a burrow. I have to work on a mesh top.

Will update as things are added or changed.

Started off as this idea. A floating Rockwith a nem and a clown. But, Mantis won out.
