my friend at CA has inspired me to make a 10 gallon nano. i think 2x 40 watt Pcs and some LR and sand would do awsome stuff.

my friend's 20 gallon nano started breeding clowns lol who knew something that small can breed clowns. all welsl as long as their happy i guess.

So this is my 10 gallon nano log.

gonna start tmr maybe on rock formation.....
Does anyone have a heat gun i can borrow?

hey, already upgrading so fast? sheeesh, thats gotta be the fastest upgrade, all you did is put up a post and already you're upgrading.
you can edit your subject by clicking on the paper and pencil icon (edit) and change your topic name from there.
when you are ready to change the topic to "spyles's 220 gallon nano" you can do it the same way.

I got all my plumbing and stuff almost complete! all i need is a mag drive pump. some vinyl tubbing and start to build the canopy and stand!. the wetdry is gonna be converted to a sump and everything...

I shouldve shown you guys how ugly this thing looked when i got it. it was full of cyano and dead bristle worms this morning. stinked like crap...... couldnt even see the inside hahhha.

BTW anyone good with polishing acrylic? might need some advice to remove some scratchs

Today i decided not to use the wetdry as a sump for the tank, seems like a big waste after i only need it for the macros.... i might cut up that 10 gallon or use a rubbermaid, i think rubbermaid is the way to go tho. Just need to figure hout how to add it baffles.
