Well I bought a used Red Sea Reefer Nano.. It's an 18"x18"x18" cube and holds 21gal in the display and 7 in the sump! The tank is a year old and in great condition, other than needing a good scrubbing.
I won't have it running for another month as I'll be traveling to Europe for 3 weeks at the beginning of August. I am currently at work with nothing to do so I decided it's the perfect time to start a build thread!
I've cleaned out the tank as it had been sitting, full of water, with all the pumps off for almost a month.. It was gross. Probably 15 dead hermit crabs/snails all throughout the rockwork. The skimmer collection cup was full and had been sitting for 3 weeks. It was a mess.. but I got it cheap, one reason being the seller didn't want to clean it out himself!
It will get another good scrub down before I set it up for good.
