I never would have dreamed it would grow so fast, 1158 members this morning, and help so many. 3422 members later, here we are at year two. Things sure have changed since Nano-Reef.com was first born. Nano Reefs are being discovered and created by more people than ever before. For all those who said it couldn't done; look at us now!

Chris great job with a site for people who arent afraid to have saltwater in smaller tanks. This site proves that you can successfully keeping a thriving nano and picoreef without having a huge tank.

Actually, it will never be cycled. Our tanks are continousely being cycled by the amount of life we add or remove. People think their cycle is complete when a $6.00 test kit reads no nitrates. Cycling keeps happening and the longer the tank is set up, the better. It is not a 6 week thing ~Paul B, owner of 40year old reef tank |

Awesome resource. Spent nearly a month on NR and acquired reliable and tested information from NR members. Couldn't imagine running my tank without the support of the NR community!
