ADA is the tank maker and the 60p just reference's the model tank. it's a rimless 24x12x14 tank. regarding the inTank media basket, there is a vendor on nano-reef.com that sells them. mediabaskets.com. basically instead of doing the common DIY fuge for the aquaclear HOB filters, inTank sells lasercut baskets to fit in them with separate chambers. it's a nice product.

so the new JBJ nanocube RL's were released and i'm not a fan of the dimensions of their 30gal, but luckily i stumbled upon the new tanks being released by Reef Octopus. pulled the trigger on the 32gal T60 but unfortunately due to stocking, i won't be taking delivery until April.

RIP Small Fry (fire shrimp my wife named)

everything else looking fine in the tank. being chalked up as natural causes.

just a few updates since it's been a while. went away for 9 days leaving the tank alone, no tank sitter. came back and everything was ok! extra algae on the glass and sandbed but i can live with that. but 3 days later i came home from work to a deceased midas blenny. parameters were in check and everything else was ok. not sure why the midas bit the bullet. ugh! two deaths in about a month.

but on a more positive note; i've received shipping info on my tank upgrade! being delivered to the UPS terminal at 4/18 for freight pickup. went with the new Reef Octopus 'luxury' 32g (display tank, cabinet, overflow and sump).
