awpong Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 light looks very sleek and unobtrusive, very nice. Thanks. It was the final piece of my tank, and now that it's set up, I'm ready for some livestock!!! Unfortunately I haven't found a good LFS here in San Antonio. I spent 4 hours today driving to all of the local reef stores, but none of them had a great selection. And even then, they were all incredibly over priced or kinda sickly. It looks like I'll be ordering my livestock online Link to comment
awpong Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 Since I don't really have any good LFS, I'm contemplating buying these guys Although I may try and hold out until DD has another pair of Bangaii Cardinals available. It's just really hard for me to not add anything now that the tank is finally ready Link to comment
buddythelion Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Patience patience!!! Although, those are gorgeous clowns. You had the clowns on your wishlist already too. Link to comment
awpong Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 Placed an order from Reefgardener.net Hopefully DD will have some good fish for me this week so I can get some more life in this tank! Link to comment
RollaJase Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Absolutely love the scape! A really nice build so far. I'm starting to like those NanoBox fixtures more and more, I'm seriously considering selling up my AI Sol and seeing if Dave can build me a custom. Link to comment

I don't have anything in the tank right now, so I can't attest to how well they grow coral, but they're definitely an attractive light fixture. That, and Dave is a great guy to work with. man those are going to look great. awesome addition. can't wait to see them Thanks! I'm considering buying my fish today off of diver's den too. They're going to have another black ice clown pair, AND a pair of bangaii cardinals. If I can buy them today, I will! Link to comment
Nocturnal Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I got a new container to replace the blue bucket as my ATO reservoir. I sprayed the inside with Krylon Fusion, so I'm hoping that'll make everything reef-safe. Any thoughts? Also, going to be adding part of my CUC today. USPS tried to deliver the package earlier today, but I was in lecture. I'm going to drive to the post office to pick up the package in about an hour. So excited, the tank will finally have life! Lastly, lights come in tomorrow Check the plastic/recycling code on the bottom of the container if it has one. If it's 2, 5 or 7 you are golden even without the paint. Great looking tank already. Cubes are under appreciated IMO. I went DIY with my fixture but the nanobox is so sleek that it will be my top choice down the road. Link to comment
