My wife won a IM NUVO20 Drop off tank in one of our local club raffles, so I thought I would document the build.
I have already upgraded the return pump to a DC Mighty Jet, purchased the internal media basket, got a few extra filter socks, a random flow generator and an AI Prime. I am unsure of a skimmer as of yet, as the IM skimmers don't get the greatest reviews, but I do have an Eshops nano skimmer that worked very well on a previous tank, I will just have to see if it fits.
I have begun building a Marco rocks scape already and will post pics soon.
Question......for those of you that have one of these tanks....when I removed the tank from the carton, the back plastic insert panel of the base was bulged and I tapped it with my finger and it cracked. It really doesnt bother me, but was thinking of just removing it so I can use that void for storage or excess cord storage, etc. Have any of you done this?
