R3rueda Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Thanks everyone! Quick question, is it frowned upon to have your rock work up against the back even on such a small tank? Quote Link to comment
DocReef Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Thanks everyone! Quick question, is it frowned upon to have your rock work up against the back even on such a small tank? Doesn't matter, just hard to clean. My old tank had the rocks resting on the back plastic chamber. 1 Quote Link to comment
R3rueda Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 Doesn't matter, just hard to clean. My old tank had the rocks resting on the back plastic chamber. Ok thank you.. I have heard a lot of things regarding water flow but I didn't think it would really make a difference in such a small tank.. Thanks for your input Quote Link to comment
rbargante Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Hi. Nice tank. Ive got the same. Your Cobalt MJ1200 Pump is bether than the original? If you can can you make a small video from the water flow ? Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment

R3rueda Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 I will try to keep you all posted more often instead of just posting videos every 3 months lol Quote Link to comment
R3rueda Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 It has been a while since I've been on Nano-Reef. A lot has changed in that time. I am now a married man and I have moved to our new place. I am sorry about the lack of updates. The tank will be turning 1 in a couple of days. I plan on making a video showing how far the tank has come. Thanks for following. Quote Link to comment
