my new toy..well i had it for a week now. def a live saver.

some pics of my cassos.

hey thanks! i actually bought a 30 breeder from Mr_X who is 1 of my suppliers for coral lol. All the zoas, duncs, sps besides monti, are from sharkbait9. I am gona start my 30 breeder diary once i get back from vaca.

the breeder will have all my current livestock from my nanocube and i will sell that bad boy when the time is right.

i am going to use 36" 6x39 Nova extreme Pro. I think i will be able to keep any coral i please in there

looks good I mounted a 4 inch fan from walmart on the back of my wall blowing across the open back chamber and after that I could keep the lid closed except in the summer when it was getting 85-90 in the house then I had to crack the lid open

yeah i use a single azoo cooling fan and i propped up the hood with somee nutri water container caps. i might get another fan but so far so good. my rkl takes care turning the fan on and off.
