After several years in the hobby, and learning just enough to get myself into some serious trouble ;-) I've decided to try my hand at a nano, for grins and giggles.
This is just a basic 10 gallon setup, with a standard heater, HOB filter, and a hood with 9 white LEDs. I've painted the back black and sealed it.
I've added 20 pounds of black sand and about 11 or 12 pounds of rock... I'll probably add another 5 or 10 before it's done. I'm in no rush, Its actually been cycling for a few months now.
I'm giving serious thought to making my own protein skimmer, based on the ReefOctopus design. I do fine scale modeling, so I think I can work this out.
I'll end up adding blues and probably some multi-colored LEDs. Each set up on timers. I'll see how that works and go from there.
I know I should have started this build thread a bit sooner. Still,
I'm going to take my time and have fun with it.
Thanks, Raymond
