Turbo5nail's Custom Nanocube

Recommended Posts

hey guys, first post ever

been lurking for the past 6 months

anyway

 

its been a little over 3 months already

 

for coral so far I have a bunch of ricordia, alveopora, striped mushrooms, hammer coral, and a xenia

 

1 cleaner shrimp, and a sand sifter of some kind

 

I also have a bunch of hermits, and turbo snails

 

I do have a small blue tang in there I'm trying to save, its going to go in the bigger tank after it gets done cycling

 

as for nanocube mods

 

I took out all the stock media, put live rock rubble and a polyester pad against the top of the intake in the first compartment, a bag of chemipure and black diamond carbon in the second, and then retrofitted a berlin 90 skimmer in the 3rd

 

put in some custom moonlights, its kinda ghetto, but not bad I guess for homemade

I might put in some more as they don't quite light up the whole tank, but thats after I do my csl 32watt retrofit

I will most likely do that this weekend

 

this is my first tank, and I'm pretty proud of it so far

let me know what you think

anyway on with the pics

thanks

yeah just some quick pics I took at night

the lights were really bright so I had to tone it down a bit with the shutter

so yeah thats why it might seem kinda dark

In the future I will take day time pics

oh I guess I also forgot to mention I added a rio 50 in the tank, the flow is greatly improved with an added powerhead, I'd recommend this to anyone with a nanocube

I second that, I'd like to know what skimmer you are using too.

 

It looks like you just cut out the opening where the vent is, but what type of skimmer.

 

Thanks,
