6yr old LED NanoCube - tank moved!

it was amazingly easy to retrofit after you have a heatsink loaded with LED's ( a step which i did not have to do fortunately). I literally just removed the few screws that attached the old PC's to the hood, then beaded some JB Weld along the spots where the heatsink touches against the plastic from the hood.

Big update... Moved the tank from the apartment to the house we bought. New aquascape seems to be more fitting for acros and i really like it:

Long time, no update. Looking at this last update, i see the tank actually looks much better now but i didnt realize it because it was such a slow change over the past 8 months. The LED's have really helped the tank explode in color...i just wish i could get rid of the flatworms once and for all!
