cliffrouse11baseball Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I am just now starting up a 7 gallon nano. I painted the back yesterday with some flat black spraypaint. I put in 15 lbs of arg. sand. I have a small hob filter by whisper. I have the factory lights in until my order comes in. I orderded the 32 watt retro kit from custom sealife. I also ordered a microjet 404 for circulation. I am on the way to the lfs to purchase some live rock today. I will update and post pics of my lights and setup. Thanks for looking!!! Link to comment

WorldNation Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 hey, thats original yo. if it works, it works update us with more pics Link to comment
T?@7 Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 my idiot friend one time setup a 125 for another friend and put the stand upside down. It actually worked, but wasnt quit as stable as it would be normal, so we righted that biotch. Link to comment
cliffrouse11baseball Posted September 28, 2003 Author Share Posted September 28, 2003 I fixed it, although it was very stable and sturdy and covered up my 4 inch sand bed. So if you want a deep sand bed and dont want it seen turn the bottom upside down. ahha I will post some more pics tomm with some live rock and some critters. Thanks Link to comment
cliffrouse11baseball Posted September 29, 2003 Author Share Posted September 29, 2003 I have fixed my stand and have added all the live rock that im going to add.

cliffrouse11baseball Posted September 29, 2003 Author Share Posted September 29, 2003 another updated pic sorry about the glare Link to comment
SeaMountain Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 I think there's room for a bit more LR down in the lower right! And don't let these morons push you around on teh stand thing. It's obvious you set it that way to catch any water that spills while fooling around in there! You're a trendsetter! No Go Cubbies! Link to comment
cliffrouse11baseball Posted September 29, 2003 Author Share Posted September 29, 2003 Starfish or something on the glass i found today Link to comment
WorldNation Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 hehe, i had one of those guys about 6 months ago too, lil white one. but i think one of my hermits killed it, cause i only saw it twice. Link to comment
caja Posted September 30, 2003 Share Posted September 30, 2003 FYI on the starfish...your call, I've tossed one and kept one. http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/showthread...&threadid=13890 Link to comment
cliffrouse11baseball Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 I had added a purple dottyback, but i was forced to take him out after I saw him eat 2 of my snails. I added a neon goby instead. I might add a fish way later also since the neon goby is so small. I figured I needed to keep a small fish to begin with since it is going to be my first real small nano tank. Wish me luck. My lights come in on monday and alot more hardware. I am getting in a powerhead and some bionic and my calcium test kit and alk test kit. I am also getting a digital thermometer. Thanks for all of your help. I will post pictures as my tank progresses.
