And my project while babysitting, setting up my nano tank! Step one, add water, check for leaks, make sure pump and heater are functioning well!

Love the pics!! But.....what is a "nano tank"? Looks fishy to me!! LOL

kazkirkpatrick · 05-19-2006, 06:03 PM

Its a teeny saltwater tank! I think its basically any marine tank under 20 gallons. This one is 16 gallons. I have my MH lights and refugium coming in the mail soon, Im making a stand and hood next weekend. Im VERY excited! Corals, polyps and mushrooms, along with a clown and goby or two. I have a 120 gallon discus tank, but this is my first salty one.

Good luck with your nano tank! Looks like "fatty the furball" had fun at your house! lol!

Fabulous looking group you have there!! Ummm question/advice.. I have had salt tanks for about 15 yrs now. Please tell me your not putting the fish and corals in right away? You have to let the tank cycle for about a month. That means NO FISH! If you want some help on how to cycle ect../ NANO tanks are tough even for someone with experience, PM me and will help you out..Fancychicken a.k.a Kristine

Ive been researching this for months, so dont worry! Im just checking for leaks and making sure the heater is stable and pumps are working right now. I have plenty experience in the world of discus, freshwater I know, but still a fish that requires more experience. My lights havent arrived, so Im not getting my LR yet.

Good luck with your tank!
