nanoworld - I got it in L.A for $168. It's very common now. Almost all the stores can order them for you. When I got it, there only a few stores carried it.

you did a really good job with your tank, I just bought a via aqua 18 gallon and wanted to know what are you running on the back of your tank. Also are the lights you have the ones that came with the tank or are they modified.

Hello Basingh,
I've been running a Prizm skimmer and a HOB millennium 2000 filter. The light is stock (2x36W - 1x12,000K and 1x7100K)
Hope that helps.

I just ordered the 21 Gal Aqua Via tank for my husbands Birthday. And it will be our first Salt Water tank. Is it hard to maintain them? I'm not even sure I got a good price. ($239) I liked the look of the 10 gal and the owner of the shop said it's easier to maintain a larger tank. Should I put live plants in right away or wait? Your tank is beautiful. I hope ours turns out that way.
Thanks
Tami

Hello Tami,
Are you going to have a planted tank or a nano reef? if you get your 21gal with marine setup then it's about right. If your tank is a fresh water setup then it's a bit expensive. It's all about the light that is more expensive for a marine tank vs fresh water tank.

This is a really cool tank ! Excellent aquascape and very colorful. I'm setting up the same tank with the stock lighting for now. I have a 150 MH pendant available - debating on replacing the stock light.
Anyway - this tank has really been an inspiration. Good job and congrats on Tank of the Month.

Should I stay with the stock lighting it comes with or should I get new bulbs? How offten should I replace them? Don't they lose there power? I am in the process of adding a 10g fum underneath any ideas?

scolex - I am not sure. It all depends on what are you keeping in the tank. The stock bulbs are sufficient (if you get the marine setup). You need to replace the bulbs every 10-12 months. "Fum"? you meant refugium? I have no idea about refugium. I never setup one.
