I have taken down the nano that was temporary whilst building my 93 cube.
The plan is to rework it into a functioning frag/holding tank in the utility room.
This works because it won't be seen and the room is heated and cooled.
I am using my 18X18X11 sorta cube, stand and 15 gallon sump. Lighting is a Noopsyche K7 turned WAY down. Water movement is a hydor nano and the return pump. Two 50 watt heaters run by a STC1000 from Inkbird. Bare bottom with an eggcrate/3d printed rack.
Simple, effective. Nothing but weak kalk top off and a filter sock for now and a couple cycled ceramic bio balls. May install one of the extra protein skimmers I have later on down the line.
I don't prophylactic dose medication for my fish in holding and a I only want one or two more in the 93 so I will hold them in this tank as I get them for a month and keep an eye on them.
I already have three varieties of acans, a couple different mushrooms and a pink devil's hand frag going in it once it's up and running. Obviously, I will keep the parameters as close as possible to the main display.
This is what the tank looked like while setup.
Will post more photos later today.
