Sorry - I guess I could have included some more info. I mainly put this pic up so I could link to it in a post in the DIY forum. It's an eclipse 6 that I yanked the hood, filter and brace off of. It has an eheim HOB filter with carbon and Tunze's equivalent of rowaphos in a filter bag. I added a little hagen 201 pump I had laying around. The rock is a mixmash of stuff - mostly limestone that had been in my refugium on another tank. The lights are screw in power compact bulbs I picked up at home depot for 8$ each. They are 19 watt Custom Electric Daylight bulbs - the package says they are 6500k. They produce very nice color and are very bright. I put them in a couple of $10 desk lamps (I've since added another matching light). The corals are all from my 75 gallon tank. I added a new brighter brand of bulb and several of my corals reacted poorly. I moved them to the nano hoping the lower light levels would bring them back.
